I'm so excited to share my debut children's book, MY MOTHER'S TONGUES, forthcoming from @Candlewick! This is the story I wished for as a child, celebrating what it means to grow up as a bilingual daughter of immigrants.
We're delighted to reveal the cover for MY MOTHER'S TONGUES: A WEAVING OF LANGUAGES by @theumamenon, illustrated by @RaheleJomepour! This picture book about the experience of bilingualism comes out Fall 2023 from @Candlewick. Get a closer look here:
