So thrilled that my debut novel #IKickandIFly has found a home with #Scholastic. No one better to reach every young person. Love the design by #Chris Stengel @Doaly

Congrats @UzraZeya! Looking so forward to working with you. @USCIRF

Yes. So desperately needed, as the #Rohingya have not been able to return to their homeland, and the brutality and onslaught by the Burmese military continues.
