I followed a link to your website and although I have not read any of your books yet , we will certainly be doing so soon. I am extremely impressed with your attitude and outlook on life. You are the exact kind of role models children in todays society need, especially boys! Looking forward to my son meeting someone worthwhile, you are appearing at his school in KC soon.

You are doing a great job on writing books because my daughter who HATES to read, really loves your books! I am so glad that she finally found a series she loves and wants to on her own READ! THANK YOU so much and God bless you! Keep blessing us with more books for preteens and teenagers, believe me I can assure you that you can get more of the African American culture to read, just keep praying and be blessed!
