"It’s cozy and hopeful in all the best ways."- Publishers WeeklyĪ 4-star Common Sense Selection recipient for Booksįrom New York Times bestselling Joanna Ho, author of Eyes that Kiss in the Corners and Eyes that Speak to the Stars, comes a heartfelt picture book about the depths of a mother’s love. "The heartfelt title will be welcomed by new parents as the narrator voices the universal dream of wishing the best in life for their newborn." - Booklist These bookshelves give me inspiration to write and tell stories – I see what an impact they have on my own kids and I hope that I tell stories that do the same in homes and schools outside my own."An affirming and enchanting love letter from parent to child." - Kirkus (starred review) WHERE IS THE POOP? is probably my 3-year-old’s favorite book, and my 6-year-old is a LEGO fanatic, so we have a lot of LEGO books in our home.

You can see a lot of anti-racist books and social justice-themed books on my shelves because I work hard to teach my kids to be aware and critical of the society in which we live. I try to fill our shelves with inclusive books that particularly highlight the stories and voices of people who have historically been marginalized. I have two goofballs – age 3 and 6 – and my favorite part of the day is snuggling them while we read books at bedtime. This is a picture of the bookshelf in my kids’ room. My day job is as the vice principal of a high school, and some of my responsibilities include working with students who are caught cutting corners and misrepresenting their work, so I felt some type of way about doing that for this photo!

I have a lot of bookshelves around my little home.
