Will Braden ever learn to keep his cool in the face of disappointment? Follow Braden’s story as he learn about the perils of overreacting and losing self-control.

“So many strange and wonderful things happen at every twist and turn, you'll be happy to wander with Josie . . . Each book she descends into seems to teach her something, and even if it's not obvious where the story is going, we're in it for the long haul.” —NPR From Shannon Hale, bestselling author of Austenland, comes Kind of a Big Deal: a story that will suck you in—literally. There's nothing worse than peaking in high school. Nobody knows that better than Josie Pie. She was kind of a big deal—she dropped out of high school to be a star! But the bigger you are, the harder you fall. And Josie fell. Hard. Ouch. Broadway dream: dead. Meanwhile, her life keeps imploding. Best friend: distant. Boyfriend: busy. Mom: not playing with a full deck? Desperate to escape, Josie gets into reading. Literally. She reads a book and suddenly she's inside it. And with each book, she’s a different character: a post-apocalyptic heroine, the lead in a YA rom-com, a 17th century wench in a corset. It’s alarming. But also . . . kind of amazing? It’s the perfect way to live out her fantasies. Book after book, Josie the failed star finds a new way to shine. But the longer she stays in a story, the harder it becomes to escape. Will Josie find a story so good that she just stays forever?

African Americans have historically and presently erased from the conversation about mental health both within and outside the community. In an effort to reduce the stigma disparaging the severity of mental health issues in the African American community, I conducted research about how art and literature may be used to destigmatize black depression and anxiety. I wrote and illustrated this book targeted towards black children (although anyone can read it!) in an effort to start a conversation where I saw one was lacking. This book discusses anxiety & depression, stigma, coping competencies, and much more in regards to mental health!
