Keynote Lecture on Children's Publishing

On Friday, September 8th, 2023, I gave this keynote: "How to Diversify Classroom Libraries to Increase Belonging,"  for the Belonging Begins with Me Educational Symposium. I share my journey in children's publishing, my path as a writer, and talk about grassroots children's book publishing.
