Allen Fatimaharan & Hannah Lee: 99 Problems but a Beat Ain’t One
Clap, snap and rap to the beat in this awesome event as the team behind My Hair presents their new picture book The Rapping Princess. Princess Shiloh cannot sing like all the other princesses, but does she have another talent? Author Hannah Lee helps you find your rhythm and groove in a high energy reading of her story, then illustrator Allen Fatimaharan shows you how he draws the funky princess herself. This hip, interactive event helps young MCs everywhere to have the confidence to find their own voice and dare to be different!
This is a pre-recorded event from the 2021 Edinburgh International Book Festival.
