Review Quotes: A Top Ten Title, 2015 ALA Rainbow List
"The authors keep their messaging to a minimum; coupled with the emotion and humor in Docampo's artwork, it goes a long way to helping the book feel like a book and not just a resource."--Publisher's Weekly "This is another example of the excellent and instructive books published by the American Psychological Association."--Spirituality and Practice "The thrust and charm of the poem is sweetly powerful, perfectly expressed and complemented by the swirling, stunning illustrations by Valeria Docampo. Not Every Princess is a children's title that constitutes required reading for all children (and their parents)....Not Every Princess has a strong positive message about using one's imagination to awaken one's full potential, and is highly recommended."--Midwest Book Review
