Friends, my new novel for children, Pablo and Birdy, will be out in August. Publishers Weekly just gave it a starred review, calling it “a tender tale of the search for ho
me, belonging, and identity (that) smoothly incorporates elements of magical realism and powerful allusions to the refugee experience.”
That reference to the refugee experience is why I’m posting here today. I’d love to hear from you if you have a personal immigrant or refugee story to share with me. I hope to publish one story per day on my blog this August, similar to the tattoo stories and dog stories I did in celebration of Tell Me a Tattoo Story and Percy, Dog of Destiny.
If you’d like to be included in the line-up, please email me your story and a photo (of you or something related to your experience) if you wish.
Email: [email protected]
I greatly look forward to hearing from you. Thanks!
