Thanks to Travis Jonker for hosting the cover reveal of HOME IS IN BETWEEN , my picture book releasing 2.23.21 from Macmillan Children's Books , illustrated by the brilliant Lavanya Naidu. You'll also find out more about the book's premise and Lavanya's thoughtful design. Here's an excerpt of my interview with Travis:

"The space between cultures doesn’t have to be a barrier; for children who grow up there, it can become a threshold of gratitude to celebrate the best of many worlds. I hope readers make themselves at home in Shanti’s story. Her name in Bangla means 'peace.'"
