My favourite thing is going into bookstores and spending all my money. Went to @paperbasedbooks 🇹🇹 and got these three books. All of them are by Caribbean authors because Reading Caribbean is actually my entire personality. Please support your local bookstore.

We love author visits, especially from our youngest wordsmiths!. Parents, get a copy of 8 year old Amayah Wallace-Aniebonam's debut for your young adventurous reader! Amayah's Quest for the Golden Diamond is a fun-filled fantasy that emphasizes the value of teamwork and tenacity.
