Kelly Starling Lyons (@kelstarly) shares GOING DOWN HOME WITH DADDY. Kelly is a wonder to me. Her books live in nearly every collection of our school library. Her JADA JONES series is so well-loved, that just mentioning her name in our library had students literally giddy to read her next book. She had not one but two picture books included in our mock Coretta Scott King award last year including GOING DOWN HOME WITH DADDY, a book illustrated by Daniel Minter for which he was awarded a Caldecott honor. Kelly's newest book is called TIARA'S HAT PARADE, illustrated by Nicole Tadgell, and it centers on a daughter's love for her mother and the heartfelt way she responds when momma's millinery business is forced to close. We squeeze a whole lot into this one conversation, so be sure to put in a list of holds requests at your library to check out all of Kelly's books for yourself. You can access even more information about this book and its author by visiting www.matthewcwinner.com/blog.
