A SUPERHERO
showcasing black girl magic and the versatility of black hair is just epic!
BLACK AND BROWN GIRLS DESERVE IT
After decades of being told black hair isn't good enough, black and brown girls have earned the right to celebrate their natural hair in its natural state.
Representation matters!!!
In the superhero world, black and brown girls rarely see superheroes that look like them, and when they do, the character is never the lead; they are always a part of an ensemble.
I wrote this book
to show Black and Brown girl the beauty their hair possess helps build confidence in themselves and their perception of themselves.

The Creators
Crown Shepherd is an emerging fiction, picture book, and comic book writer. Her writing is a result of her surroundings and upbringing. She has always been deeply rooted in literature and writing, but it wasn’t until she found more writers that looked like her that her writing soared. Those writers allowed her to dream and create by her own standards, and from a point of view of a black protagonist. As someone from an under-represented community, Crown knows what it means to have representation feed your creativity. The stories she wants to share are aimed at giving a voice to the voiceless.
