Lightning Striking Twice Looks Like This..


The Park Slope Barnes and Noble is showing LOVE to my hometown. That HOT book next to Secret Saturdays is written by a friend who also grew up in the Red Hook housing projects. If you want a great book for tween or teen girls, click here for Danette Vigilante and The Trouble with Half a Moon.

Secret Saturdays is celebrated This Black History Month
