The Invisible Princess

This book was great because it was a book about an African American Princess which there are not many books about. I also liked this book because it made an attempt to show the hardships of slavery and the types of things the slaves had to sacafice in order to survive. One of the things that I found interesting about this book was the hidden religious aspect. In my mind all of the characters such as the Prince of Night and the Lady of Peace seemed as if they could be gods and the palce of freedom, peace and love seemed like it could be considered heaven. I also found myself thinking that the place of freedom, peace and love could be a representation for how we as Americans one day hope the United States will become and Faith Ringgold just put it on paper.
