Review
“♥ Princess Marisol & The Moon Thieves is no ordinary children’s book. It is a multimedia children’s adventure. In this powerful, yet fun-loving tale about a little princess who is trying to recover the stolen moon from a couple of mischievous musicians, we are taken on a journey filled with adventure, beauty and ultimately self-discovery.
In its creation, there has been a collaboration of artistry from the fields of music, fine art and literature and the result is a proverbial story of working together and learning respect for each other and for nature. To reinforce those lessons the book contains a curriculum component that can be used by educators, parents and guardians alike.
An additional theme of the work places a focus on multiculturalism. As the world around us grows, our interaction with people from other cultures becomes more common. Learning about and from these cultures is both vital and beautiful.” This review written by the incredibly talented singer-songwriter Keith Sanchez.
Princess Marisol & the Moon Thieves is critically acclaimed having been featured in film festivals, the Morning Brew Television Program, the Local IQ, UNM Lobo, Peace Talks Radio and was adapted for the stage by FUSION Theatre Company of New Mexico and performed around the Southwest.
