Dear Little Princess,

You are so special to God. You have been chosenand crowned as His princess. You are not a pretendprincess. Your reign is for real because you area daughter of the King.

You are very important in God’s kingdom. He

loves you so much, and He wants to talk to you

every day in His Word, the Bible.

This book has personal letters from the King,

written for you to teach you how to live and act like

a real princess. Someday you will meet the King in

Heaven and He will give you amazing gifts for all

you have done to show others that you love Him.

If you will read a letter every day, you will learn

how much you are truly loved and adored by God,

the King of all kings!

Love,

Sheri Rose

I haveamazing plans for you, both now and for when you growup. Remember, a crown and a palace do not make you atrue princess—it is your love for me and for others thatwill make you special. If you read my words every day inthe Bible, I will teach you all you need to know about liv-ing like a daughter of the King.

Love,Your King and Father in Heaven
