So happy with how this cover turned out! It’s so beautiful to look at. I painted it with acrylic paint on chipboard. Great collaboration with Renee Watson and Bloomsbury. This book is for young adult/teens and I’m looking forward to reading it in my down time this Spring. Two more children’s books coming out soon...looking forward to sharing with everyone!

What Momma Left Me

‘It is unfair that the dead have smiles on their faces and the living are left crying.’

Author – Renée Watson

What Momma Left Me is a middle grade book covering so many important things in just 220 pages. I wasn’t able to stop myself from not reading it and surprisingly, I didn’t get teary eyed while reading which is soo important as it can be very overwhelming for people.

Finally got a book I can talk about on here. I’ve been gone for so long and I’m sorry 😭 Almost on the first page of the book is when my tears started, and they pretty much lasted to the end. Man, this was a sad story. But it was a really good one. So often we forget that kids can go through some of the toughest of moments and trauma and so to read a book that makes you really focus on that was…well not nice, but refreshing I guess. Kids like these characters exist and have to deal with some pretty horrible things. You almost forgot Serenity and her friends were only in 8th grade because of the adult situations they were put in. It really makes you think. The writing felt a little odd sometimes and I felt that overall there could have been just a little more to the story. But I cried and enjoyed the story all the same. — ⭐️ 4.5/5 Stars — #bookstagram #bookreview #bookrecommendations #whatmommaleftme #reneewatson #middlegradebooks #youngadultbooks #toughstuff https://www.instagram.com/p/Byx0BqnAV-U/?igshid=1qtmhvsgsjygc
