She is a princess who longs to escape. He is a conquistador looking for adventure. Life in the village will never be the same.

Uleyli is a princess–but she isn’t happy. She’d rather create art and make crafts than rule. When the Spanish boy Juan Ortiz is captured by Uleyli’s father, she sees a way to escape her life in the village. But when an attempt to flee to Cuba with Juan brings more problems than solutions, Uleyli will need to use the power of her creativity to rescue her new friend, her village…and herself.

Uleyli: The Princess & Pirate is based on the true story of Ulele, a young woman known as Florida’s Pocahontas. The beautiful line art and evocative text paint a vivid picture of life in the Native American villages of what is now the southeastern United States. This is a story celebrating Uleyli’s creativity and non-violent heroism.

Uleyli: The Princess & Pirate is also available as a graphic novel–don’t miss seeing Uleyli’s adventures in full color!

Industry Reviews

"This was a real treat–an exciting story with a powerful message, what’s not to love? It’s always a pleasure to read a children’s book with a female main character who uses her brain to solve her problems (Uleyli’s passion for art is really inspiring). Plus, the Native American history in the book was all new to me and very interesting. This would be a great gift for kids–or adults, honestly–who love art, adventure, or history.” -Amanda Lee, Toronto, Ontario

"We enjoyed the book very much. It was right on target with our Native American Unit and the students were very interested and engaged. It gave them more insight as to what life was actually like then .... especially as Uleyli is a child around their age." Kerri Stolz, Fifth Grade Teacher, Celebration K-8, Celebration, Florida
