«Frida Kahlo Para Meninos e Meninas» is the children's book by Nadia Fink and Pitu Saá, published by Tinta da China in paperback (28 pages, in Portuguese).
This children's book portrays Frida Kahlo as the first anti-princess: a real woman, without superpowers but superpowerful, who used art to transform suffering. She painted her sorrows and joys with intense colours, did not hide her defective leg and filled her works with self-portraits, Mexico, animals and skeletons.
First volume of the Antiprincesas collection, published in 2017. Text in Portuguese.
Aimed at children and young people, it brings the figure of Frida Kahlo closer through colourful illustrations and a narrative about her life and art.
Nadia Fink is an Argentine author, journalist, and editor known for writing the works in the Anti-Princess Series of picture book biographies of Latin American women. After studying proofreading, she worked as a copyeditor at the magazine Sudestada, and later as a writer. An interest in countering what she perceived as harmful gender roles in children's literature led Fink to cofound the independent publisher Chirimbote and create the Anti-Princess Series in 2015.
