Book Review - Tiana's Perfect Plan

About the Book

In Tiana's Perfect Plan you get a charming debut picture book from acclaimed actress, singer, and Disney Legend Anika Noni Rose, which shows Princess Tiana on a never-before-seen New Orleans adventure!

After traveling all winter, Tiana and Naveen are back in New Orleans in time for Mardi Gras. Tiana wants everything to be just right, putting the finishing touches on their party favors and parade float.

But then she gets an unexpected letter from Naveen's parents, the king and queen of Maldonia. They've decided to join the celebration!

Determined to make it the best Mardi Gras ever, Tiana sets out on a new adventure with some old friends to find the perfect ingredients for a special addition. But soon she finds that perfect might not be the goal . . . and she may already have all she needs.

My Take on the Book

Anika Noni Rose’s debut picture book offers a delightful new chapter in Princess Tiana's life, perfect for fans of The Princess and the Frog. Set during Mardi Gras, the story follows Tiana as she tries to create the perfect king cake for her royal in-laws’ surprise visit. Determined to impress the king and queen of Maldonia, she sets off on a fun, adventurous journey through the New Orleans bayou to find the unique ingredients she needs.

The book beautifully captures Tiana’s hardworking, spirited personality and highlights her love for her family and friends. As Tiana searches for a “dollop of magic glow” to make her cake extra special, she learns a valuable lesson: perfection isn’t necessary when love is at the heart of her efforts. The lively, colorful illustrations capture the vibrant energy of New Orleans and Mardi Gras, bringing Tiana’s world to life on the page.

This story is perfect for young readers, with its blend of adventure, familiar characters, and a heartfelt message about love and effort. It’s an entertaining addition to any Disney collection, especially for those who admire Tiana’s resilience and spirit.
