I’m a guest on Early Risers – Minneapolis

This week a new episode of the “Early Risers” podcast dropped featuring Zsame Morgan of Baby Cakes Books out in Minneapolis, Yuyi Morales in Mexico, and Meleck Davis of Minneapolis. I was so honored to be on the show and really enjoyed several of their episodes. I’m just getting familiar with Meleck’s work, but Zsame is one of the first indy bookstores to support my book Furqan’s First Flat Top and Yuyi is an OG in the kid lit world.
