Music act, MzVee has introduced a picture book titled ‘Natural Me,’ aimed at children aged 4–8 years.
Inspired by MzVee’s empowering “Natural Girl” persona that celebrates self-expression and the beauty of embracing one’s natural self, the book delivers a positive message to young readers.
MzVee shared that her own experiences of being teased for her skin and hair during childhood, which now contribute to her unique beauty, motivated her to create a resource for children facing similar challenges.
The decision was further influenced by an incident involving her mentor’s daughter, who encountered similar experiences at school.
Illustrated with charming watercolours by Lisbeth Checo, ‘Natural Me’ serves as an ode to young girls embarking on a journey of self-empowerment, sisterhood, and embracing their natural selves.
The book delivers a powerful message, encouraging readers to celebrate their uniqueness inside and out.
