Prince & Knight

Once upon a time, a prince needed saving and a knight answered the call.

In Prince & Knight, a dragon threatens the kingdom, and a brave knight steps forward to protect it. Together, the prince and the knight face danger, form a bond, and discover that love—not fear—is the truest kind of bravery.

This is a classic fairy tale with a joyful twist: the prince and the knight fall in love, save the day, and live happily ever after. No tragedy. No lesson disguised as punishment. Just adventure, kindness, and a story where love is allowed to win.

Bright, affirming, and full of heart, this book offers children something powerful: the chance to see themselves in a happily-ever-after.

Why it’s been banned

Prince & Knight has been challenged and removed for:

• LGBTQ+ representation
• Depicting a same-sex relationship
• Being labeled “inappropriate” despite age-appropriate content

It is often banned simply for showing that queer love exists and belongs in children’s stories.

Why we love it

• Because it’s joyful.
• Because it normalizes love without making it a lesson.
• Because kids deserve stories where they can see themselves as heroes.

This book doesn’t explain queerness. It includes it. And that matters.

Perfect for

Picture book readers • families of all kinds • classrooms and libraries • LGBTQ+ kids and allies • anyone who believes representation should start early—and gently
