Coloring Page Tuesday - Jada Reads...

     There's a movement going on in kidslit right now - to point out the lack of diversity in children's books and to get it fixed! As our country grows more racially and culturally mixed, our books should reflect that. Right now, they don't - work needs to be done! Every child should be able to find themselves within the pages of a good book. Jada agrees!
      It's one of the reasons I'm so proud of the diverse books I've done throughout my career - check them out! (Literally!)
     CLICK HERE for more coloring pages! And be sure to share your creations in my gallery so I can put them in my upcoming newsletters! (Cards, kids art, and crafts are welcome!)
     Sign up to receive alerts when a new coloring page is posted each week and... Please check out my books! Especially...

my debut novel, A BIRD ON WATER STREET, coming out next week! Click the cover to learn more!
     When the birds return to Water Street, will anyone be left to hear them sing? A miner's strike allows green and growing things to return to the Red Hills, but that same strike may force residents to seek new homes and livelihoods elsewhere. Follow the story of Jack Hicks as he struggles to hold onto everything he loves most.
