Learning through a pandemic is certainly a unique experience. There are students learning in hybrid situations, some fully virtual, logging onto lessons from locations very different than school! The goal of this story is to address different learning situations and encourage students to embrace their learning journey, whatever it may entail! I hope to inspire a love for learning and aim to increase diversity and representation in children's literature. This is the second book I have written, the first one being, "When VIrona the Corona Came to Town." I hope you have had a chance to enjoy that story as well!

Now available in board book! This rhyming book encourages children to celebrate their individuality and lets them know that it's okay to play with whatever toys they want to! "This book encourages kids to practice self-acceptance and embrace all kinds of play in a lighthearted and cheerful way." --School Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW Girls perform to fairy songs. Boys play football all day long. Boys yell, "Boo!" and run away. Girls like kittens and ballet. Except when they don't. Children are often told by many different people about what toys they're supposed to play with, what interests they should have, and who they should be simply because of their gender. This stereotype-breaking book invites children to examine what they're told "boy" and "girl" activities are and encourages them to play with whatever they want to and to be exactly who they are! This book is published in partnership with GLAAD to accelerate LGBTQ inclusivity and acceptance.
