Rapper, singer, actress, author Queen Latifah is one of the most recognizable and beloved women on the planet. In each of her specialties, she shows her millions of fans what an energetic small-town girl from Jersey can do even when the odds are against her. Like her 1999 autobiography, Ladies First, this mentoring guide draws on the experiences of herself and her friends to lay its life lessons. Put on Your Crown focuses on issues such as partner violence and sexual abuse that pervade our society. A personal lesson in self-empowerment. (Hand-selling tip: Like any other book by Queen Latifah, this book has strong crossover appeal.)
