One for the Books | Tackling Big Topics in Middle Grade Books @OnefortheBooks | Uploaded May 2022 | Updated October 2024, 22 minutes ago.
Special guest Author Mariama J. Lockington talks about writing the "messiness" of childhood in her books for middle-grade readers, including adoption, racism, discrimination, and mental health. We also dive into the publishing process, music, and makeup. It's all bookish, I swear!

Mariama is the author of "For Black Girls Like Me" and "In the Key of Us". Find her work at www.mariamajlockington.com. Follow her @blackgirlslikeme (Instagram and TikTok) or @marilock on Twitter.
