� Praise for Khadijah VanBrakle
“Fatima is a fierce protagonist who will stop at nothing to preserve her dignity. Skillful examinations of the intersections between culture, gender, and religion, as well as nuanced perceptions of one Black Muslim community, round out VanBrakle’s searing debut.” —Publishers Weekly on Fatima Tate Takes the Cake
VanBrakle realistically shows how religion can alienate, separate, and unite people. . . . An engrossing, emotionally rich meditation on faith, family, and the courage it takes to create your own story.—Kirkus Reviews on My Perfect Family (starred review)
� Praise for Laurel Goodluck
“A tale of feminine magic, power, and strength. A must-purchase and a wonderful read.”— School Library Journal on Fierce Aunties!
“The cultural significance of large family structures in Native communities is on loving display in this picture book. A tender, slightly chaotic tribute to extended Native families.”—Kirkus Reviews on Too Much: My Great Big Native Family
� Praise for Caroline Starr Rose
“Excellent pacing, an engrossing plot, and an endearing main character make this impossible to put down. A riveting survival story with emotional growth. ...Opal’s voice shines through each poem, deepening moments of emotional resonance and intensifying action sequences.”— Booklist on The Burning Season, starred review
“Writing with compassion and a wealth of evocative details, Rose offers a memorable heroine and a testament to the will to survive.” —Publishers Weekly on May B., starred review
