Kirkus Q & A: Monica Brown
January 7th, 2016 by jules
“These books represent my desire that our multiracial and multicultural children are not considered ‘fractions’ but rather celebrated for containing multitudes.”
Over at Kirkus today, I talk to author Monica Brown, pictured here, about her newest picture book, Maya’s Blanket/la manta de Maya (Lee & Low). It was released back in August and illustrated by David Díaz. We also discuss what’s next on her plate for 2016.
That link is here today.
Next week here at 7-Imp, I’ll showcase some spreads from the book.
