Manuscripts
Below are just a few of the picture book manuscripts that I am working towards publication. I hope you enjoy them!

"Taio and Regit are an inseparable father and son duo, but when a dark shadow enters their home and begins stealing Regit's happiness, Taio must find a way to break through the shadow and show his father how strong and unbroken he truly is. A story of mental health, recovery, and bonds between father and son."
OPERATION:
GET RID OF DAVE!
"When Andre's dad begins dating a white guy named Dave, Andre KNOWS that Dave's gotta go. He devises a set of Home Alone style schemes to get rid of Dave, but must battle his sister who believes Dave is family. A story of family, acceptance, and getting kicked in the butt by your sister."
RUMBLESAUR
"In a world where dinosaurs and humans live together, Rumblesaur is the famous battle-royal sport of the world. When a team of dinosaur athletes lose the Rumblesaur championships the year prior, they have one chance to redeem themselves by winning that same championship this very night.
