WHEN I HIT THE ROAD (Coming May 2020) So thankful to be a Root Literary and Sourcebooks MG Author. Pizza-eating lover of 80's music.










T.J.B.T.Ratchet —a teacher’s dream. So many poetic forms explained. Rhyme Schemer—the epitome of what I ❤️ about verse and using a specific type (Found Poetry) to elevate the story. African Town and Voices—the poetry type chosen for each character is deliberate and adds layers.



@NancyJCavanaugh As a former teacher, Ratchet gets high marks! I would have absolutely read this with my students. (P.S. My dog loved it too. First time she “ate” a book 😆, so we bought the library a fresh new copy!)

On this day of ❤️ love ❤️, I thought I’d share some NIV that I love! I’ve read 50 NIV in about a month on my way to 100! The Crossover and Rebound @kwamealexander The Canyon’s Edge @DustiBowling This Journal Belongs to Ratchet @NancyJCavanaugh Golden Girl @ReemFaruqi /1
