Fresh Princess by Denene Millner, Gladys Jose

3.0

Childrens picture book. This book's title is unfortunate in my opinion. Many of my generation that grew up watching "The Fresh Prince" on TV spent a lot of time learning the words and the beat of the theme song, trying to keep up with the pace as Will Smith rapped on the screen. I thought this book would be a cute book about a modern girl, with words set to that theme song. Nope. A young black girl moves with her family to West Philadelphia. It's a decent story, about not wanting to move but coming to love a new location, but it still felt like a letdown.
