Meet the queen of the scene. In
this first picture book from the First Lady of Hip-Hop, this little
ruler of the playground has got some serious game! There’s nothing
she won’t try—B-ball, stickball, jump rope, soccer—and though she
might not win every game, she has speed-of-orbit feet, a great
attitude, and girl power to the max. But it’s not all about her.
Queen of the Scene wants everyone to remember—baby, you’re the best!

Princess Briana
addresses one of the key issues that face adolescents today, which
is how they view themselves. Girls of any ethnic background can
relate to this book because it points out the need to love yourself
for who you are and not who society portrays beauty to be.
