Gail Herndon asked Laila Ibrahim:

A wonderful book. I read it straight through and am anxious to read your next one. I have read several similar books on the fate of slaves and their children in the ante-bellum south and I deeply appreciate the fact you gave Mattie and her family freedom and reunited them with Lisbeth at least superficially. I hope you will write many more?

Laila Ibrahim Hello Gail. Thanks for being in touch. I'm so glad to hear that you think I did a nice job with Yellow Crocus. I'm just starting to work on a sequel. My second novel, Living Right came out last month. It's on a totally different, but equally complicated moral situation.

Best wishes, Laila

I am presenting Yellow Crocus to my book club. Is there any questions you would like me to ask them about your book? I would be glad to give you any specific feed back if you were interested.

Kim Ramirez asked Laila Ibrahim:

I loved Yellow Crocus and Mustard Seed, would you know if Golden Poppies might be avaiable in Audible and if so will Bahni Turpin narrate? Your creation of these people, their families is such that as a reader I feel like are friends. I'm excited for the new book and will certainly listen to Yellow Crocus and Mustard Seed again to keep the story fresh and ready for the next chapter. Thanks for the great characters.
