About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels they do not fit the mold of what a hero or a 'perfect' person should look like. Princess Violet is plain, clever, and adventurous, a stark contrast to the delicate princesses of traditional lore. When she discovers a forbidden book and accidentally awakens an ancient, manipulative evil, she must find the strength to face her own insecurities and save her kingdom. This lush fantasy explores themes of self-worth, the power of storytelling, and the weight of responsibility. It is a sophisticated read for ages 8 to 12, offering a poignant look at how our flaws and our choices define us far more than our appearance ever could.
