The Queen of Christmas introduces . . . Little Mariah!

There was one time unlike any other,

CHRISTMAS TIME!

Product description

About the Author

Mariah Carey is an author, entrepreneur, philanthropist, producer and multiple award-winning artist and songwriter. She is the best-selling female artist of all time with more than 200 million albums sold to-date and 19 Billboard Hot 100 #1 singles (18 of which are self-penned)―more than any solo artist in history. With her distinct five-octave vocal range, prolific songwriting, and producing talent, Carey is truly the template of the modern pop performance. Mariah is also an inductee to the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and has been recognized with multiple Grammy Awards, numerous American Music Awards, three Guinness World Record titles, both Billboard’s “Artist of the Decade” and “Icon" awards, the World Music Award for “World's Best Selling Female Artist of the Millennium,” the Ivor Novello Award for “PRS for Music Special International Award,” and BMI’s “Icon Award” for her outstanding achievements in songwriting, to name a few.

Carey’s cultural impact has transcended the music industry to leave an indelible imprint upon the world at large. In 2009, Carey was recognized with the Breakthrough Performance Award at the Palm Spring International Film Festival for her critically acclaimed role in Lee Daniels’ Precious. A Congressional Award recipient, Carey has selflessly donated her time and energy to a range of philanthropic causes near to her heart including Save the Music, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, World Hunger Relief, and the Elton John AIDS Foundation, among many others. A tremendous supporter of children’s charities, both domestic and international, Carey founded Camp Mariah in partnership with the Fresh Air Fund, a retreat for inner city children to explore career development. In 2020, Mariah’s riveting memoir The Meaning of Mariah Carey was recognized as a New York Times #1 bestseller upon release. In 2021 she announced the launch of her foray into the world of spirits with Black Irish―an Irish cream with a name that serves as a playful nod to her family heritage.

Surprisingly delightful children's book about believing in oneself!

Reviewed in Canada on November 1, 2022

Surprisingly, Mariah Carey and Michaela Davis wrote a beautiful, heartfelt, hypnotizing children's story. Little Mariah learns to overcome an overbearing mother and her talking parrot and her detractors (bullies) by using the power of her voice (her gift to help see her through her trials). This book is incredibly BEAUTIFULLY illustrated (I have never seen such amazing artwork in a children's book yet), and the story is pleasant to read as it is written in rhymes, making it such a delight to one's ears (truly reading it is like music). Children learn that it is alright and completely acceptable to be themselves despite what others may think and to hold steadfast to one's unique qualities as that is the power within that gets one through any and all adversity. Unlike Mariah's other children's book (which was the lyrics to her hit song "All I Want for Christmas is You" set to pictures), this book is an ORIGINAL story that is mesmerizing, carefree, pleasant and simply remarkable beyond measure!

Terrible writing, nice illustrations

Reviewed in Canada on January 5, 2023

Verified Purchase

The writing quality is really bad. I wonder if they rushed it in order to get it out before the holidays.

The story is kind of all over the place and doesn't really make sense. Like the mom is set up to be kind of the villain but then isn't, the kids that are mean then suddenly turn nice for no reason, she likes Christmas because it means the house is cleaned but then doesn't really elaborate further. It was hard for my 4-year old to understand so I filled in the gaps while reading. The writing itself doesn't flow really well, it was hard to read.

Would not recommend this book at all.

Disappointed

Reviewed in Canada on April 6, 2023

Bought this book for a gift and the parents were shocked by some of the words used it. For example "little loser", "you suck", "the kids were brats" "dumb" and telling kids they "suck" and calling them a "loser".
The pictures are beautiful but the story doesn't make sense and is overly wordy. Would not recommend this book or buy it as a gift again.

Very sad story

Reviewed in Canada on April 21, 2023

First, I don’t understand what are the benefits to make words so complicated. Very difficult to read.
Second, this is a book with no logic. There is no reason why her mom cannot speak, why the bird has 2 faces, why the comb is evil.
After reading this, I kinda try to understand the whole story behind it:
Little Mariah’s died many years ago so she did not remember or maybe never heard of how her mom talked. She imagined her mom with the picture hanging up the piano. Because she likes singing, so she imagined that her mom sang instead of talk.
She died after the rich kids destroyed her home. She died in the cold weather. At the moment she died, she saw all the people who bullied her became good elves and they sang joyful songs for her.
Overall, this is the saddest story I have ever read for my children and I will never read this again. It is too sad for kids.

"The Christmas Princess (The Adventures of Little Mariah)" is a heartwarming children's book that captivated my family during the holiday season. Mariah Carey's tale of a young girl's Christmas adventure is both charming and inspiring. The beautifully illustrated pages are filled with magic and wonder, capturing the spirit of Christmas. My kids were enchanted by the story of Little Mariah and her journey to help a lost reindeer. It's a perfect addition to our holiday traditions, reminding us of the importance of kindness and the magic of Christmas. Mariah Carey's storytelling talent shines through in this delightful book, making it a treasured part of our holiday library.

Mariah themed Christmas book

Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2022

Verified Purchase

It's definitely geared towards the Lambily. If I didn't love MC I'd most likely be disappointed, but I expected it to be exactly what it is - a cute book with Mariahisms. If you want a Christmas-Christmas storybook it's probably better to read something more traditional, but this is a cute book for kids that may feel on the outskirts of Christmas and holidays or life in general, as it pertains more to self-esteem than it does to actually talking about Christmas.

Lifelong Mariah fan and I’ll be returning this.

Reviewed in Germany on December 30, 2022

Verified Purchase

Lifelong Mariah Carey fan here so I’ve got a lot to say; bear with me.

If I could, I’d give this book no stars but for the great illustrations, I am happy to give at least one.

The book starts off with this super weird letter to herself which, if you’re a fan, you know is authentically to her little self. I was OK with the All I Want for Christmas movie being part of her inner child healing but the letter in this book is just too much. It doesn’t even fit in the story.

Then there’s the story.

The story reads like a Christmas horror film for children. I absolutely regret not reading it before I started reading it with my daughter (5yo). She was into the storyline per se but it was way too scary without enough to balance it - and definitely not enough to balance it interestingly or sensically. The whole storyline is depressing and random, and reads more like a terrifying dream of odd random events.

Then there’s the writing quality. I want to believe that the publication was rushed but the illustrations are magnificent so that certainly couldn’t have been the case.

Any hardcore Mariah fan has great pride in her writing her own music lyrics but man, she just really missed the mark here. Like I mentioned above, the storyline is incredibly bizarre and too scary in my opinion. But then there’s the actual text: it’s basically just a long list of negative adjectives in every single sentence. Sometimes it rhymes, sometimes it doesn’t. And the word choices were just completely off. For example, I found myself nearly gasping when the word “sucks” was in there and I changed it quickly in the moment when read aloud. If she wants to write such storylines and use such words, set your eyes on a book for adolescents but this is too much for children.

I will never read this story to my child again, I will be returning it, and I hope that Mariah stops doing everything except her Christmas concerts so freaking rushed and lazy. You have enough money to hire the greatest manager and PR manager. Use it! You are the GOAT but please don’t spoil your reputation with small crap like this.

(Guess I needed to vent.)
