My Papa My Prince by Keegan Brown
4 Blank Books independent publisher, 2022
Drawn in Procreate

I am excited to announce that not only did My Papa My Prince receive a Starred review by Kirkus, it was also recognized as one of the Best Indie Books of April, 2022! The Kirkus Star is one of the most prestigious designations in the book industry. Please, read the full review here.
 
“Offering graceful rhymes, this imaginative celebration of fathers and daughters dances across the page.”
 
“In this lively and inventive tale, Brown’s rhythmic, dance-centered rhymes focus on the rain and the waltz metaphor, allowing much of the poignant storytelling to happen in the pictures.” 
 
“Tabakh’s beautiful digital illustrations, completed in Procreate, appear hand-drawn, using a painterly style with vivid textures that encourage young readers to pore over the details.”
