The incredible Jason Reynolds gave some praise to Lamar Giles’ LAST LAST-DAY OF SUMMER! He says “All children deserve to exist in magical spaces where their imaginations and familial bonds will them into heroism…I for one am grateful to Giles, and this brilliant story, for that reminder.” 

Just a reminder that Versify Books is a real imprint, started by Kwame Alexander so you know it’s genuine, it’s on Tumblr, and they want submissions from authors of color. You can do it, awesome people!!!
