LILLYBELLE, A DAMSEL NOT IN DISTRESS
By Joana Pastro
Illustrated by Jhon Ortiz
Boyds Mills Press, an imprint of Boyds Mills & Kane
Publication Date: October 20, 2020.
Follow damsel-in-training LillyBelle on her fun adventure in Joana Pastro and Jhon Ortiz’s newest picture book, LILLYBELLE, A DAMSEL NOT IN DISTRESS.

At the School for Damsels, LillyBelle enjoys many damsel-in-training classes, like cake baking and vocal training, but the rule that a damsel must be in distress? Not so much. When she's captured by one villain after another, LillyBelle will need to use her charm and wit to save herself and prove once and for all that damsels don't have to be in distress—and all in time for tea!
 
Kirkus Reviews says of the book: “(L)essons of self-empowerment, the importance of dialogue, and the value of understanding are efficiently rendered, aided by rounded, earth-toned illustrations that create a grounded fairy-tale world little readers will enjoy.” 
Available for pre-order at your favorite bookstores!
