What better way to teach young girls – who could be one's daughter, niece, grand-daughter, god-daughter, or pupil – to embrace their God-given beauty and identity as God's children than through a children's book? Author Selena Holston Gabriel did just that with her children's book “Heaven's Royalty, That's Me!”

“Heaven's Royalty, That's Me!” is a powerful and hope-filled book for girls of all ages. The author uses rhyming text and culturally diverse illustrations to affirm the beauty, authenticity, and inherent worth of girls all over the globe and to embolden them to use their gifts and strengths to make a compassionate difference in the world. As daughters of King Jesus, they are each a princess - and that's not make-believe. They are heirs of God's Kingdom, Heaven's Royalty.

In line with “Heaven's Royalty, That's Me!”, Selena created Heaven's RoyalTEA™, an event series with the aim to share the message and mission of the book. This program is offered in partnership with churches, schools, and other Christian groups through Compassion Creates Change™, a Christian non-profit. These events encourage girls to anchor their self-worth in God's truth and empower them to be leaders and change-makers. Heaven's RoyalTEA™ includes teas and treats, the children's book presented in “spoken word,” an empowering message to girls, and a book signing-session with the author.

“Heaven's Royalty, That's Me!” has received a favorable review from Kirkus Reviews. The review reads, “For Christian girls who value the Bible's teachings, this upbeat story provides them with the faith-based confidence to be the best they can be. (It is) a simple Christian tale that reminds young girls of their inherent value and God's love.”
