For the ones whose names were never on keychains! πŸ₯°


Hey Reader,
​
So many of us grew up with names that teachers mispronounced and kids teased. πŸ˜” Beautiful names that deserved to be spoken with pride, not shame.
​
It’s why I’m so excited to announce that my second LITTLE TROUBLEMAKER book, featuring our girl Little Luvvie, is now available for preorder (and dropping into the world on May 6, 2025)!!! πŸ“˜β€
​
​
The cover of LITTLE TROUBLEMAKER DEFENDS HER NAME was revealed exclusively by PEOPLE Magazine today (which WOWWWWW 🀯🀯🀯) and this book is truly my baby!!!

What happens when your name becomes a reason to stand up for yourself? Little Luvvie is ready for her first day at a new school! But immediately things do not go well when a kid makes fun of her name. And you know my girl is not gonna let that slide. Ultimately, she learns that her feelings matter, she can defend herself kindly, and she can forgive and open herself up to friendship!
​
​This Little Troublemaker book is dedicated to those who never saw our names on the keychains and mugs πŸ₯Ή.

And it's healing to my spirit because one thing I'm gon always do in this series and with Little Luvvie is affirm her and let her know that she is always worth defending. She will never be humbled. 😀πŸ’ͺ🏾 I made a video about why this is so special to me.

I just LOVE this book so much! πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯° I dedicate it to everyone whose name was never on the keychains and mugs growing up πŸ₯Ή. It's so healing to me, as someone who has spent a lifetime with people acting like my name is a burden. 😭

​
I wrote this book for ME, the one who, when her name was made fun of, would just cry on her lunch, quietly in the bathroom. The one who didn't have the good comebacks back then. The one who was not told, listen, your name is amazing. And they owe it to you to say it full chested. And you owe it to yourself to say it with pride. πŸ’ͺ🏾
