I am standing in front of a group of school children in our auditorium. I am wearing a yellow shirt, black jeans and a long knit sweater. Students are wearing mango crowns.

I spent my debut book birthday celebrating with my school community. What a blessing 🥰🙏🏾✨ #kidlit #canlit #debutpicturebook #bookbirthday #pubday
