★ A kid protagonist “serves as an interpreter between her Spanish-speaking parents and their English-speaking community” in Olivia Abtahi’s “well-developed picture book debut” THE INTERPRETER, illustrated by @monicarnaldo bit.ly/4h8dbLe
These kids’ reactions are so good 🥲❤️
Thank you @monicarnaldo for the letter, signed book, and the secret! The kids were so excited! @RosemeadeElem
Hands down my favourite type of mail to receive is “readers demanding answers”— @BookswithDavis I will be in touch soon 👀👀👀
So a couple weeks ago we read “Mr. S” by @monicarnaldo The 2nd graders were intrigued by what Mr. S’s full name was but the plop of mustard hid it. I suggested they write a letter to @monicarnaldo to ask her. Here are some of them.

One of my favorite back-to-school traditions… starting the 1st day back with teachers with a whole staff read aloud! This year’s selection was “Mr. S” by @monicarnaldo It had the whole staff guessing until the end! #WilsonWay #WeLeadTX

Here she is, world! Presenting the title & cover for the final book in The Forge & Fracture Saga: Iron Tongue of Midnight
It all ends with the Fae Queen.
Out April 22, 2025
ALT The cover of the book Iron Tongue of Midnight. A teenage Black girl in a yellow Renaissance gown stands against a glowing green background. She wields a silver rapier as raw shards of iron magically float around her. Another, older woman looms threateningly in the background. The book's title appears above them in stylized silver text.
