A book is such a fascinating thing, it can transport you to a different world, empower you and even teach you how to survive in the wild on your own. I've always tried to instill a love for reading in my children, from a very young age I would read to them and now they enjoy reading on their own. When ever I get the chance to check out new books with them, I can't refuse! So when I was offered the chance to read and review the book "Princess Pirates" written by D.K Ackerman I was delighted to say yes.
I thought this was a sweet and heartfelt book, the writer wrote this book about her daughters adventures and you can feel the love and joy she has for their adventures as you read the story. I love that they are not only pirates, but princesses as well because it is okay to be both! When I was younger I always hated the who "girls can't like things boys like", I've dressed up as a pirate and so has my daughter.
The girls are on a journey to find the treasure that the enchantress has for them. This book makes you feel like you are on an adventure yourself and the illustrator does and outstanding job with the visuals, it feels like a real jungle yet you can also see the subtle hints that the girls are in their home having this adventure in their imagination.
My kid both enjoyed this read and so did I! Age wise I think this is a cute short read for most ages, my kids are seven and eleven and they both thought it was a neat adventure. This book highlights the connection these siblings have while empowering young girls that they can be both a "girly girl" and a "tomboy" which is a great message in my opinion while also encouraging use of your imagination. What was the treasure the girls were after? You'll have to read the book to find out that answer.

This is so cute. I'm all about girls that can do anything boys can do, too!
What a great book! This would be such a good book to inspire the adventurous side of girls.

I have a friend with a brand new grand baby, and I've been collecting books to send to her. This sounds like a perfect addition to my list!

My daughter would love this.
awww I love how it has the special message. I think that's good for the kids, it broadens their ideas.
I love that this breaks down those outdated stereotypes. It's time that we tell girls everywhere that they can like anything they want to like - whether it's Barbies and baking or pirates and cars. Don't let your gender put you in a box. This is a book that I am going to have to pick up for all of my nieces!
This is so cute! If I had a girl I'd get it :)
This books sounds adorable! I love kids books that shake things up. Pirates were stereotypically boys, I love that this book made them girls!!!
This book would be perfect for my granddaughter, who loves pirates and princesses. The illustrations are fab - I spotted that sneaky staircase in the forest!
This looks like such a wonderful book! I spent all summer re-reading my YA books because as you say, they can really transport us into a different universe. Love the illustrations in this one, too.

Thank you for sharing this! I’m always on the hunt for new books to read with my kids. I’ve got 4 girls ranging in age from 2 to 11 and know they would love this. My son may even enjoy the adventure theme of it. We are huge pirate and adventure fans.
Good to know about this book for my daughter who grow so fast, before I knew it she can read on her own . Love the cover of the book.

I'm someone who has lived a life seemingly in the background, I must say this final indignity I have suffered almost too much to endure. You see, I have been sickly and weak since the day I was born and doomed to go through all my life a weakling. I seemed to have always suffered from one illness or another and could never play with the other children as I so desperately wanted to. Mother always made such a big fuss over me, also, making the situation worse as the other boys teased me mercilessly after they saw it. I was browsing the internet searching on how i could be transformed into a powerful when i came across the email of a man named Lord Mark. who was a VAMPIRE so I told him that I has always dreamed of becoming a VAMPIRES, All i did was just to follow the procedure that i was been told, and i bet you that procedure I took change my entire life to something i ever desire, freedom, sickness free, pains free, fame, influence, connections and even more that i can. Thanks to Lord Mark. Do you want a life full of interesting things? Do you want to have power and influence over others? To be charming and desirable? To have wealth, health, and longevity? contact the vampires creed today via email: Vampirelord7878@gmail.com
