You give me credit nearly constantly, privately and publicly, for being the reason you read picture books now and I'm not gonna lie: it never gets old. It thrills me every time. It means the world to me. But mostly I am just so happy you've discovered this joy.
When I was at Carmichael's Books in Louisville last week I happened to come across This Is the Honey: An Anthology of Contemporary Black Poets edited by Kwame Alexander, and it's luminous. I've been trying to go slow with it, reading only a few poems a day, but that hasn't worked and I find myself wanting to read it all the time. Highly recommend.
LAURA. Thank you so much. Reading and writing with you is the deepest gift. Thank you for seeing me. You and Nessa are an absolute dream. Thank you for sharing her with us. Not to brag, but I think our two newsletters are the only ones that get the dog to book ratio exactly right. Please keep writing poems about Nessa forever!!
What a delicious collection of colorful books and other yummy items. I can practically taste the page!
