Introducing Ellis on Guard!

I'm so excited to share that my next picture book, Ellis on Guard, will be hitting bookstore shelves on February 3, 2026. Illustrated by Nandita Ratan and published by Second Story Press, Ellis on Guard will also be released in a French edition titled Ellis prend garde. Big thanks to Isabelle Montagnier for the translation.

"Ellis on Guard is a gentle, imaginative story about living with anxiety—and finding ways to stand tall anyway." —Danny Ramadan, author of the award-winning Salma Books series
