🥳EXCITING NEWS!!

Book signings at LPMS and @arc_realty! 📖✍🏼 . I received the highest compliment this week…not from a fancy editor or teacher (and I love those!)…I found out that a 7th grade BOY read my book VOLUNTARILY for the SECOND TIME! 🥳 Folks, it doesn’t get any better than that. My heart is full. Thank you, everyone, for a wonderful release week! 🌏 ❤️ #studentexplorer #familytravel #teentravel #mglit #yalit #travelmemoir #bookstagram #middlegradebooks #middlegrademarch #yabooks #newbook #newrelease #travel #siblings
Almost two years ago, I entered a writing cave. I was trying to escape the catastrophic summer of 2020. I had no plan when I entered that solitary place. I just wanted to create something — anything — that would unify humanity, rather than divide. . Then it hit me. . People always say to write what you know. And I know two things: One, there is no better way to develop an appreciation for freedom and diversity than through travel. And two, anyone who survives 24/7 family time while hopscotching across the globe has a story to tell. . Exactly 22 months later, I have emerged from that cave with The Passport Project. I hope you learn a little, laugh a lot, and fall in love with the world along the way. #NationalWriteYourStoryDay #writeyourstoryday #MGLit #middlegrade #travelmemoir #yalit #exploretheworld #4wornpassports #thepassportprojectbook #bookstagram
MAJOR fan girl moment this week. I tuned into my favorite podcast, The Ken Coleman Show, and HE was talking about The Passport Project! 🤗📖 🌏 Many of you know I’ve been hibernating in a book-writing-cave for the past two years, what many of you don’t know, is that Ken sent me to that cave. 🌍 If you don’t know who Ken Coleman is, he is a career coaching wizard. His special talent is helping people identify their passion, talent, and mission so they can fulfill their God-given purpose on this 🌍. I sent my book to Ken with a note explaining his role in my journey. Little did I know that he would feature it on his podcast!! What a great reminder to always thank those who play a part in your success. ❤️ @kencoleman #middlegradebooks #mglit #newbook #familytravel #teentravel #thepassportproject

Here's a sneak peek at what you'll find in The Passport Project. 🌏 While most people go to Panama to visit the Panama Canal, we highly recommend adding a visit the Embera Puru village.

The countdown is on! Only 6 weeks til release day! 🎉 What happens when two middle schoolers and two middle-agers trade their suburban bubble for the world? Find out in this coming-of-age adventure for teens and tweens. 🌎 Flap copy: “THANKS FOR RUINING MY LIFE!" 😠 Delaney’s eighth-grade dreams crumble when her parents announce their “global family field trip.” While her younger sister, Riley, is thrilled to ditch middle school for world school, Delaney cringes at trading parties and friends for a passport and 24/7 family time. 🥴 While Riley researches bungee jumping and packing tips, Delaney must decide whether to continue the silent treatment or embrace this adventure. 📚 What about school? Forget science and math, the only way to pass this class is to survive: 👉Scam artists 🤥 👉Monster cockroaches 👉Deadly stingers 👉Projectile vomiting 🤮 👉Public nudity 😳 👉Toilet catastrophes …and those lessons aren’t in their textbooks. Each passport stamp is a real-life social studies lesson in new religions and new rules—resulting in sooo many awkward family moments. But when an itinerary mistake puts the family’s freedom at risk, they learn the most valuable lesson of their lives❗ 😮 Trapped together in their parents' mid-life crisis, will the sisters survive this global adventure? And will non-stop family time turn them into friends? Or enemies? 🌎 🎈Now available for pre-order!
