The year is 1980. Leonard Grey, now in his sixth year at a prestigious Southern college, works various jobs to pay for the remaining class hours he needs to graduate. Hired by the athletic department to tutor a superb Black basketball recruit, Lenny becomes ensnared in conflicting conspiracies—one to use the player’s skills for personal and institutional enrichment, the other to preserve the school’s predominantly white athletic teams and tradition of academic excellence.

Discredited by the college, Lenny is hired as a full-time security guard, which entangles him in the details of a local girl’s mysterious disappearance and the murkiness of local politics. This time, however, the young man has a chance to heal the wounds of his own past.

Rented this book from the library and my toddler insisted on reading it after every nap, so of course I had to buy it for him.

What Happens Next?!
Format: Hardcover
Awesome read aloud for young children. Lyrical, whimsical as it describes anticipation for the holidays. It is a book of change and cause and effect. Calming and poetic as children are engulfed in the story. Thank you!

A perfect read for the Christmas season!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
This beautifully illustrated and lyrical picture book focuses on the little changes in weather, plants, people and more that lead up to Christmas! While most Christmas books focus on Santa, his reindeer, etc, And Then Came Christmas focuses on the tell-tale signs and traditions that people partake in such as hanging wreaths, searching for the perfect tree to decorate, hanging twinkling lights, and lining up to see Santa! This unique holiday read-aloud spans the entire 'season of Christmas', from the falling leaves and bare-branched trees to chilly days and glistening white snow and focuses on all our favorite things about Christmas! The illustrations have a soft and cozy aesthetic that makes this a perfect bedtime or storytime read, especially while snuggled up warm and tight with loved ones while waiting for Christmas!
