And a time will be had! Can’t wait to be at my favorite place ( @aliceeverafterbooks ) with one of my new favorite people ( @quartezh ) talking about my favorite thing, picture books!
Sometimes you just need a 30 minute conversation with Dr. Austin and Dr. Hands. Carrying this love, this support, this conversation, and this community with me as I finish out this semester ♥️

I had a very fulfilling Black History Month rocking my new favorite t-shirt, hanging out with one of my favorite elementary schools, talking about my book, and sending a Black history box with goodies and a book to my nieces and nephew! But remember that we exist and that our histories live #BeyondFebruary 🤟🏾
