Crown Girls by Luz Qi: A Journey of Sisterhood, Creativity, and Song
I am thrilled to introduce my second children’s book, Crown Girls by Luz Qi. This book is a heartfelt celebration of sisterhood, imagination, and the magic of creativity, inspired by the loving moments I share with my daughters. As both a creator and a mother, my artistic journey is constantly evolving, and Crown Girls reflects that transformation—a story filled with warmth, adventure, and the beauty of self-expression.
The Inspiration Behind Crown Girls
This story was born from real-life experiences with my daughters, Rose Mary and Sugar, who fill my days with laughter, curiosity, and endless creativity. Their unique personalities shine through the main characters, Princess Beth and Princess Vicki.
Princess Beth, much like Rose Mary, is full of artistic energy, expressing herself through music and colorful creations. Meanwhile, Princess Vicki, inspired by Sugar, is a deep thinker who finds joy in listening, observing, and asking big questions. Together, they embark on adventures that celebrate childhood wonder, sisterly love, and the power of imagination.
A Story of Friendship and Creativity
At its heart, Crown Girls is about the unbreakable bond between sisters. Beth and Vicki are more than just siblings; they are best friends, creative partners, and each other’s greatest supporters. Their story encourages children to embrace their individuality while celebrating the love and connections that make life special.
Creativity is woven into every page. Beth expresses herself through music and art, filling the world with color and song, while Vicki finds joy in deep thought, nature, and quiet reflection. Their journey reminds children that creativity comes in many forms, inspiring them to explore their own unique gifts.
The Song: Crown Girl
A special addition to this book is the original song, Crown Girl, performed by my five-year-old daughter, Rose Mary. This song adds an extra layer of joy and empowerment, celebrating identity, purpose, and self-expression.
With lyrics that remind young readers of their uniqueness and strength, Crown Girl is an anthem of confidence, encouraging children to embrace their voices and creativity. Watching my daughter bring this song to life fills me with pride, as it represents not just her journey, but the creative spirit in all children.
The Creative Process: A Family Journey
Creating Crown Girls has been a labor of love, deeply intertwined with my family’s creative spirit. From character development to vibrant illustrations, every step of the process was enriched by the input and imagination of my daughters. They shared ideas, gave feedback, and infused their own joy into the storytelling.
The book’s visuals are designed to draw children into a whimsical world where creativity knows no limits. Alongside the book, the song Crown Girl enhances the experience, making this project a truly immersive and interactive adventure.
