Favorite website for kids
My favorite kids' website is Adoption Clubhouse at www.adoptionclubhouse.org It is a website for kids who were adopted and anyone else who is interested in adoption. I helped create the site and I write for it. Check it out. Be sure to try the jigsaw puzzles! (These links will open in new windows. Close them to come back to this page.)

Favorite books illustrated by Colin Bootman
Colin Bootman, who illustrated my book Grandmama's Pride, has illustrated many books about African American children in United States history. My favorites are Papa's Mark by Gwendolyn Battle-Lavert and Almost to Freedom by Vaunda Micheaux Nelson. Visit Colin Bootman's website at www.colinbootman.com (This link will open in a new window.

If you liked Grandmama's Pride and you think other kids would like it too, you can help spread the word. Get a flyer that you can print to give to your teacher or librarian.
