COVER REVEAL: A Family Like Ours

Everyone's family is unique--and good! From sprawling extended families and close-knit units to adopted and chosen families, A Family Like Ours celebrates all those important connections we build over the years. Regardless of what yours looks like, family is a place for support, safety, growth, and inspiration. What is special, surprising, or sensational about your family?

A Family Like Ours is available for pre-orders now wherever books are sold.

Publishing August 15, 2023 from our friends at @sleepingbearpress. Written by @frankmurphybooks and @allylee21. Illustrated by @kaylaharren. Ages 4-8 and up.

I’ve got a confession: I’m kind of a bookaholic.

Thank you, @southingtonsteps and @southington_library for hosting me for your STEPS story time event! STEPS (Southington’s Town-wide Effort to Promote Success) is a community coalition that focuses on building youth’s skills, values, and connections that all young people need to thrive.

STEPS was kind enough to gift a copy of my book A Friend Like You to each family in attendance. Kids and families also did a fun craft activity after story time.

Last night was definitely #oneforthebooks at the Reading Partners Dream Dinner Party at @theplazahotel.

I am still pinching myself that I met @staceyabrams and she signed the book I brought with me to the event for my kids. The after party with @questlove was everything! And @dopequeenpheebs kept us all laughing and engaged as the emcee. What a night! More behind the scenes in my stories.

Thank you @readingpartners for inviting me!

COVER REVEAL: Who Am I?

“Who am I?” wonders one little girl. And with those three words her mama takes her on a journey, discovering the ways she is connected to the plants and animals around her, her present and past, her ancestors, and the land she lives on—the whole of Mother Earth. #ad

Who Am I? is an Indigenous perspective on the ways the threads of our lives are woven in with Earth’s tapestry, the things that came before—and all that is yet to be. A lyrical look at the interconnectedness of life and a mother’s tender love.

Who Am I? is also an Own Voices Own Stories Grand Prize Winner! Publishes July 15, 2023 from our friends at @sleepingbearpress.
