Here’s a recap for anyone who missed it!

Tonight! A Black Children’s Book Week event! Join in on Instagram and let me know if you have any questions about self publishing!

Do you love children’s picture books? Join the team helping to launch my newest book, Mr. Maloof!

The story follows a silly young boy who loved playing tricks. But as time passed, he grew up and out of those goofy ways. Until one day when a little blue hair pops out of the top of his head! 😲💙

This is a great addition to your classroom or home library. We all know a few goofy kids; let’s introduce them to the old goof Maloof!

Launch date: March 1, 2022
Physical books sent to all within the US, PDF versions to anyone outside the states. If you’re interested, please DM “Launch Team!”

Merry Christmas to all! I hope Santa was good to ya, baby 😉

Qotd: Who is ready for the first official Holly-day After?!

An old grump is reminded how to be a goof - a goof Maloof!

“...they need this more than I do.” Mr. Lucky Straw is a great story for children to help them understand giving back. And not just for children, but for adults, too. Yosaku continues to give back and in return receives additional opportunities to help others.

Continue showing children books that show the beauty in our world. Encourage them to explore other cultures and other traditions. Diversify their reading and expand their vision!
