Illustrated by
Amariah Rauscher.
Fueled by self-confidence and the power of her "fluffy, puffy curls," African American girl Truly (I Am Truly) goes on another series of imaginative adventures, including exploring the ocean and taking a rocket ship to Mars. The book's joyously empowering message sparkles on every page as smart, fun-loving, and beautiful Princess Truly frolics through Rauscher's dreamy, pastel-colored settings.
