@TheBigPrice @bncolumbiasc @BNBuzz @HarperChildrens I’m so glad she enjoyed it! There will definitely be a book five. It’ll be out next year

[B.B. Alston @bbalston]

It’s release day! Stopped by @bncolumbiasc to share this special with my little one. @BNBuzz holds a special for me because I wrote the first book there and had the privilege of being their inaugural Children’s and YA Book award winner!

Had the best time with Kwame Mbalia yesterday! A great writer and an amazing speaker. Thanks for everyone who came out. In fact, if any of the attendees can message me I've got some extra Amari goodies I'd like to send your way!

I’m sure this is another beauty by @bbalston. Can’t wait to hear the kids’ review. I think they’ll do a review for #giftedradiopodcast.
