Written by Heloisa Prieto, one of Brazil’s most respected authors of children’s and young adult literature, whose work spans fantasy, folklore, and mythology, The Restless Princess revisits the tradition of fairy tales while offering a contemporary reflection on the transformative power of reading. Through a charming and humorous narrative, the story explores curiosity, courage, and the discovery that books can open doors to worlds far beyond our own.

Janaina Tokitaka’s illustrations bring warmth and movement to the story, enriching its fairy-tale atmosphere through expressive characters, magical settings, and playful visual details. Text and image work together to create an inviting reading experience that speaks directly to children beginning their journey as readers.
