The goal was to give the world a sci-fi princess that not only reflects a BiPOC future, but is the hero of her own adventures. Not all princesses need saving! We released this book as an <strong>Exclusive Kindle Edition<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Lucy-Veloz-High-flying-Alex-Hernandez-ebook\/dp\/B08XNVHZZQ\" target=\"_blank\">where it is still currently available<\/a>. But this summer, we&#8217;ve decided our book deserves to be in the hands of young readers, as well as on their bookshelves. We think it would make the perfect gift for the action princess in your life and that&#8217;s why we&#8217;re offering it in two formats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-align-center wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/crowdfundr.com\/TheHighFlyingPrincess\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Join the Campaign!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/crowdfundr.com\/TheHighFlyingPrincess\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"564\" data-attachment-id=\"8655\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/plugoarts.com\/blog\/high-flying-princess\/image-2-3\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/plugoarts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-2.png?fit=1170%2C644&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1170,644\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image-2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/plugoarts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-2.png?fit=1024%2C564&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/plugoarts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-2.png?resize=1024%2C564&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8655\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/plugoarts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-2.png?resize=1024%2C564&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/plugoarts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-2.png?resize=300%2C165&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/plugoarts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-2.png?resize=1000%2C550&amp;ssl=1 1000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/plugoarts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-2.png?resize=230%2C127&amp;ssl=1 230w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/plugoarts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-2.png?resize=350%2C193&amp;ssl=1 350w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/plugoarts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-2.png?resize=480%2C264&amp;ssl=1 480w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/plugoarts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-2.png?w=1170&amp;ssl=1 1170w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not all princesses need saving!
