DRAGON SOUP
When little JC catches a cold, he decides there’s only one thing that will make him feel better, dragon soup! After all, it must be the strongest, warmest, most magical soup in the world. JC sets off on a hilarious quest to find a dragon to cook up the cure. But things don’t go quite as planned…
Every dragon he meets is terrified! With wide eyes and trembling tails, they all insist they know nothing about soup, especially not the kind involving dragons. As word spreads through Dragon City, a panic brews: Is this tiny human planning to put them in a pot? Full of laugh-out-loud misunderstandings, cozy illustrations, and a heartwarming twist. Dragon Soup is a delightful tale about kindness, communication, and the healing power of a warm bowl of soup. Perfect for children who love dragons, adventure, and a little bit of silly fun.
No dragons were harmed in this soup making process.
FREEDOM HAIR
This heartwarming tale celebrates natural hair, African heritage, and the beauty of being yourself. Perfect for young readers, Freedom Hair inspires confidence, cultural pride, and the freedom to love who you are, from root to crown.
With each twist and coil, learn about the powerful journey of the ancestors, who fought to be free and proud of who they are.
Summary of Emancipation (for children)
A long time ago in the Caribbean, many African people were taken from their homes and brought to work as slaves. They were forced to work very hard and were not treated fairly. But the African people never gave up hope. They held onto their traditions, stories, songs, and strength.
After many years of struggle, speaking out, and fighting for justice, slavery was finally ended. This is called Emancipation. It meant that the enslaved people were now free.
In different islands, Emancipation came at different times. In Trinidad and Tobago, it was on August 1, 1834, a very special day we still celebrate today! People dress in African clothes, dance to drums, and honor the brave men, women, and children who helped win freedom.
Emancipation reminds us to be proud of who we are, to celebrate our heritage, and to always stand up for what’s right, just like Oshun and her beautiful, freedom-filled hair.
FOLKLORE
Papa Bois Saves the Day
Abijah loves nothing more than snapping pictures of the world around him. On vacation at his grandfather’s home at the edge of the forest, every day feels like an adventure. When a trip to a nearby waterfall with his cousins ends in an afternoon nap, Abijah wanders off with his camera, following the bright wings of parrots. But as night falls, he realizes he is lost, and fear creeps in with the shadows.
Just when the forest feels its scariest, Papa Bois, the gentle, wise Father of the Forest appears. He shelters Abijah for the night, sharing warmth, safety, and even a hearty breakfast. By morning, Papa Bois leads Abijah back to his worried family, teaching him that the forest is both powerful and protective.
