I almost jumped out of my seat and screamed in a crowded restaurant last night when I heard that my book Someday I’ll Fly won the 2015 TAZ Author Award! I’m grateful and humbled that I was chosen and want to thank everyone who had a part in the creation of the book, especially my publishers Red Engine Press (Joyce and Pat) for giving me this amazing opportunity and my mentor EB Lewis for helping me make the illustrations the best they could be.
Wow! I’m excited to announce that my book “Someday I’ll Fly” is a finalist for the author zone TAZ book award!
