Over the years, the number of influential, educational books geared towards the betterment and enrichment of the African American male, have been few. Authors like Kandi Harris, are doing things to change that.

With the creation of Prince, The Future King and its series of books, Ms. Harris has set in motion a much needed emphasis on the positive interactions between Black men and their sons. The Prince Series focuses on the social dynamics of the father/son relationship, and helps promote an awareness within minority communities. This awareness is crucial in restructuring the bonds between fathers and sons, which further strenghtens the stability of the Black community.

"My initial motivation for starting the Prince Series, was in response to the inadequate number of educational-based books, depicting minority fathers and their sons, in a positive light", says Harris.

Through numerous book-signings, radio interviews, book-fairs, and expos, the first book in the Prince Series, "A Father's Example", has sold nearly 1000 copies in only a few weeks on the market. The book is now available through Amazon.COM, and many other bookstores nationwide.

The Prince Series not only delivers a well-written product to Black families, it also acts as a starting point for parents to revisit the mission of reading to their children. These books are crafted such that text and images are easy to follow; font sizes are clear and visible; and the message is firmly inspirational.
