Today we read with 1st graders, When We Are Kind written by Monique Gray Smith (Cree/Lakota) & illustrated by Nicole Neidhardt (Diné). We talked about what kindness means, kindness to the land, to our elders & self. "elders" was a new word for some. 🖤 #nativekidlit #librarylife

A Native guy with long hair reading his book about Native hair while a Native boy with long hair listens. Picture books are powerful. #NativeKidLit #Herizon

Working with an illustrator to create my next book. It’s a story about a boy and his grandmother using their creativity to purchase a computer when school transitions to virtual learning. #NativeKidLit #DiverseVoices #NavajoNation

#Herizon is going to be made into an animated short film. Are there any other kid lit books that have been animated? Any publishers pushing for this type of work? #NativeKidLit

Picked up a Traci Sorell signed copy of Contenders at the Musesum of the Cherokee Indian. My son’s book collection is growing! #NativeKidLit

I’m not gonna be at the Tucson Festival of Books this year, but I did get an invite from the Peace Garden. A reading of Fall in Line, Holden! disturbed the peace. Valencia Library operating on another level. #NativeKidLit

There are an additional 125 copies of We Weave circulating in the northern and eastern agencies. The biggest threat to all the craziness right now is a young Navajo with a book. Much love to Beclabito, Ojo Encino, and Mariano Lake for welcoming me to your community. #NativeKidLit


Showed my next book to an illustrator and she cried. It’s going to be a special. #NativeKidLit


I’ve had several people tell me that my books have made them tear up. I’m kicking myself for not asking if they’re happy tears or sad tears. It could go either way. Today it was the head of security at Cherokee Central Schools after reading Fall in Line, Holden! #NativeKidLit


My next picture book, We Weave, is dedicated to my son Malakai. Here he is seeing his name in print for the first time.#NativeKidLit
