About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is deeply immersed in pretend play and you want to honor their creativity without breaking the magic. It is a gentle guide for parents on how to enter a child's imaginary world with warmth and enthusiasm, rather than just observing from the sidelines. The story follows young Rose, who transforms herself into the Queen of France using a crown and jewels. Instead of correcting her, her parents immediately adopt the roles of loyal subjects. This charming narrative explores themes of family bonds, the fluid nature of identity in childhood, and the profound way parents show love through validation. It is a perfect choice for preschool and early elementary children who find joy in dress-up and roleplay. By choosing this book, you are celebrating the 'big kid' transition where imagination becomes a complex and shared social experience.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is entirely secular and grounded in a safe, loving household. It does not deal with heavy topics; rather, it focuses on the internal emotional realization that being loved for who you are is just as important as being admired for who you pretend to be.
