An African Princess - Tapa dura

Teased by her classmates about her royal ancestry, Lyra is thrilled to visit her Taunte May in the Caribbean who takes the time to review their family tree and Lyra's ties to a line of princesses.

Lyra Edmonds enjoys painting fast and jogging slowly. She is of mixed
heritage and explores this theme in AN AFRICAN PRINCESS, her first book, which journeys from the tentative realization to the proud acknowledgment that whoever we are is always cause for celebration. Lyra Edmonds lives in East Sussex, England, with her husband, three children, and two cats.

Anne Wilson was born on Ascension Island, in the South Atlantic Ocean, and has lived in England since the age of four. Formerly a freelance
illustrator, she now focuses her work on children's books. She says she
seeks warmth and inspiration by submerging herself in a variety of cultures and environments, then sharing her experiences through her creative life.
