” . . . lavish fantasy story that excels in gorgeous colorful drawings throughout by Sedi Pak and a plot that neatly moves beyond fantasy into the real world of tackling social issues and problem-solving. Young picture book readers with good reading skills (or parental read-aloud assistance) will relish this uplifting fantasy which encourages girls to think about others and is loosely based on real events.”

“I was impressed with the balance between imagination, fairy-tale and realism in this story . . . ”
— Glimpse Reviews
“This is the perfect book to empower your little princess and to let her know that she doesn’t have to wear fluffy pink with glittery flecks or rely on a man to rescue or marry her … why? … because she is quite capable of having amazing adventures on her own and of saving the world all by herself, thank you very much. The positive message imparted to your little girl is that a girl can be a heroine, she can save the day, and she can be strong and and independent.”

“What I like about this book is that it was different from all the usual princess books. As we see with most princesses who are usually wearing pretty dresses and wearing a crown, sparkling accessories and of course their unmistakable beauty. However this book shows a different type of princess, someone who is courageous, smart and self determined. The book shows children how teamwork is very important and how the princesses use their power wisely. The minute my daughter started to read the book she was captivated by the illustrations, and the story gave her great inspiration.”

“The Super Duper Princess Heroes is a fun picture book with an important underlying message about the empowerment of young girls to embrace the hero role. These three super duper princesses demonstrate that girls do not have to sit around and wait to be rescued. They can be strong, brave, and smart and can take control of their own destiny – a very positive message indeed.”

“The story is well written, beautifully illustrated, and with the right blend of such captivating elements as magic, adventure, and super powers. I love the clever way in which the author delivers his message, which is easy for children to comprehend and will likely benefit them for the rest of their lives. The Super Duper Princess Heroes is an awesome read for both boys and girls.”

“I read this book to my 6-year-old and she loved the story. With this title being “How it All Started”, I hope more in a series will follow. I liked the balance of the beautiful princesses with sharing a positive message in The Super Duper Princess Heroes. Little girls, be inspired to make a difference in your world.”
— Central MN Mom Blog
“You might think of this book a little like The Power Puff Girls meet Buddha wisdom. The girls are strong (without violence) AND girly (without pink) AND kind AND helpful AND they know how to work together to solve a problem. My kind of girls!”
— Inner Pieces Gallery
“Unlike the cliche Princess stories today, “The Super Duper Princess Heroes: How It All Started” helps spotlight the things that matter most: intelligence, teamwork and responsibility while still maintaining charm and adventure.”
— PJ Mommy Blog
“My daughter was excited to read the book as soon as she saw it. She loved the story and the illustrations, instantly picking out which princess she was and which of her friends were the other two.”
— Ramblings of a Marine Wife Blog
“I really like that the princesses are strong characters, and I like that the values of cooperation and responsibility are highlighted. Stereotypes are flipped, while the girls are empathetic and helpful, they are also determined and not easily distracted from their goal.”
— Glimpse Reviews
“What is not to love about this book about strong girls. Just because your daughter is a princess loving girl doesn’t mean she shouldn’t know there is nothing she can’t do! Great book for parents of daughters!”
