What a magical day teaming up with the United Way California Capital Region today to spread literacy in Yolo County. They featured our latest book, That Environmental Crusader Could Be Me by Enrique Baeza. Children enjoyed storytime and a free book to take home and share with their families.

What a proud family moment. ❤️📚
We celebrated my husband Enrique’s author debut at the Sacramento History Museum — and it was truly special to be there together as a family of authors.

Each of us shared our own books.

Maxton and Bronx absolutely loved presenting their award-winning stories and connecting with the community.

We are grateful for spaces that uplift literacy, culture, and authentic storytelling.

Here’s to many more literacy adventures in 2026.

Reach out to feature us at your next author event.

Read Across America 2026!
What an amazing week promoting literacy across California and Texas. I was grateful to be on an author tour with my son Maxton who got to lead presentations at three schools and a Family Literacy Night. He distributed his book to 1,600 students. Children were inspired to write their own stories and reach for the stars. ⭐️

We are so proud of our author, Maxton, for receiving a resolution from Yolo County Supervisor Mr. Oscar Villegas for his accomplishments as a 14-year-old award-winning author and literacy ambassador.

To be honored for inspiring kids to read and believe in themselves is something truly special. Maxton’s journey as the author of The Carousel King and the Space Mission continues to remind young readers that imagination and confidence can take you anywhere.

A heartfelt thank you to River City High School for their constant support and for hosting such a wonderful celebration yesterday. It meant so much to see students, educators, and Mr. and Mrs. Jung from UpLift Martial Arts come together to celebrate youth literacy.

We are grateful to our village for believing in young voices and investing in the power of books.

FULL-CIRCLE MOMENT
Seeing my book, The Power of a Sister Circle on the shelves at Barnes & Noble for the first time makes my heart so happy.
This book is now nationally distributed—and that is no small feat. Dreams, persistence, and a whole lot of sisterhood made this moment possible.
📍 Spotted at the Arden Way store
🎁 GIVEAWAY:
The first person to purchase the book will receive a Sister Circle bracelet mailed to them.
Send me your receipt to qualify.
Grateful. Proud. And excited to see where this sister circle grows next.
