VITAMINS! A COLORFUL GROCERY TRIP. MY LATEST PUBLICATION! A JOURNEY FURTHER AWAY FROM THE COMFORT ZONE.

PURCHASE VITAMINS! A COLORFUL GROCERY TRIP HERE

This is my new children’s rhyming book about the functions and importance of vitamins. I grew up reading Dr. Seuss as a child, and it was always on my mind to publish something like this to help children learn about health and wellness in the mid-2000s. One issue was that I had no experience writing for children. I hesitated and put this idea off for years until the pandemic in 2020. As I laughed in anxiety, I said, “Writing a children’s book can’t be as uncomfortable as dealing with a global public health crisis as a rookie public health Ph.D. in a clinic as an essential worker.” From there, I decided to lean toward fundamental preventative measures regarding nutrition. After that, I confided with elementary educators, family members, parents, and guardians during the writing process. After that, I had to shop for a suitable artist, which was another challenging hurdle. The illustrator that was recommended to me by my niece was perfect for the job. Mionjae Makkiyah, the artist, DID THE THING!

It took a village to craft this book, and that teamwork eased my discomfort in getting this published.
