A Real Life Fairy Tale: Princess Diana by Emberli Pridham

What's It About?

An illustrated biography of Princess Diana, the first in a series depicting extraordinary women known for their exceptional contributions to the world.

From the co-author of the Amazon best-selling children’s book series, If Not You, Then Who?, comes a story any young girl can look to for inspiration.

A Real Life Fairy Tale: Princess Diana by Emberli Pridham is the first in the Real Life Fairy Tale series, a collection of illustrated biographies depicting extraordinary women known for their exceptional contributions to the world.

Her Remarkable Story

The story follows the life of Princess Diana — affectionately known as “the people’s princess” — from her youthful days playing with the Queen’s young princes to her eventual ascent into royalty herself. Witness a spunky girl in Norfolk, England transform into one of history’s most accomplished advocates for social change.

Pridham explores the princess’s human side and her down-to-earth nature, allowing children to both relate to her life and look up to her as a role model. She reveals Diana’s childhood passion for dance, her lifelong love of children, and her joy at being a mother and taking her sons to Disney World. Readers get to glimpse her independent life as a young woman, her courtship with Prince Charles, her celebrity friendships and, of course, her philanthropic work around the globe.

Beautiful Smiling Faces

Pridham’s lyrical tone and subtle rhymes make Diana’s story flow well from page to page, and the watercolor-esque pictures capture the reader’s attention. These beautiful portraits portray people and places around the world — not just the nobility of England — showcasing Diana’s worldly travels to America, Africa, India and so forth.

This colorful book filled with smiling faces will surely bring a smile to any child who reads it!

Real-Life Role Model

But this is far more than just a pretty story. Pridham portrays Princess Diana as an exceptional example of compassionate leadership. Children who read this book — especially young girls — will discover a real-life princess they can look up to.

A Real Life Fairy Tale: Princess Diana does an incredible job of teaching children about a remarkable woman, one who led with grace, compassion and empathy, and who spread love and kindness “to all those who crossed her path.” I can think of no better way to help preserve her legacy and pass it on to future generations.
