Many girls dream of
a prince from a land far away and long ago. What about the prince she sees
every day? In My Prince Wears Blue Jeans, author Kayla Davidson celebrates ranching life
and the love between a father and daughter as she compares a modern-day cowboy
to a little girl’s prince. Yes, this prince really does wear blue jeans.
Excerpt
Praise for the Book
“This is such a sweet, well written story! It comes to life on the
beautifully illustrated pages, and you can feel the love. The text is perfect
for reading aloud to your child, and also for beginning readers. And, while
it’s great for children, I bought this book for my grown daughter, who still
thinks of her daddy as a prince in blue jeans. I highly recommend this book and
this author.” ~ S. Hunnicutt
“I thoroughly enjoyed My Prince
Wears Blue Jeans. It’s a wonderful tale about the relationship between a
little girl and her daddy. […] There are important messages shared in this
story. Readers will see it's not always necessary to live in a castle to be
cherished like a princess.” ~ Deanie
Humphrys-Dunne
“This is one of the nicest children's books I've seen for a long time,
daughters will love it.” ~ Shaun Green
“It's hard to find something I did not like about this book. I've shown
this to a few friends already.” ~ Dan
Dynneson
“What a wonderful book portraying a little girl’s love, respect and
admiration of her father. This story shows a great example of a father who is
active in every aspect of his child's life. I really enjoyed reading this sweet
story.” ~ Dr. Grace LaJoy Henderson
My Review
By Lynda Dickson
A little girl tells us all about her dad, who she regards as her “prince
in blue jeans”. In her eyes, her father’s ranch is his kingdom, and she is his
princess.
The illustrations by Eunsoo Jeong are adorable and really capture the farming
life. I love the fact that in this book it’s a little girl helping her father
around the ranch. It will show girls that they can do anything they turn their
minds to. I also like the fact that dad doesn’t mind doing “girly” things like
dancing with his daughter, having tea parties with her, and even painting his
daughter’s toenails.
This book is a celebration of farm life and the father-daughter bond. It
would make the perfect gift for daddy’s little princess.
