Thanks for pointing this out – I had no idea they were doing this. And as far as comments ‘go’, they will come. I enjoy reading the BB.

Great post, P,

I’m happy that Essence is devoting space to celebrating children’s books. This is a great time to let Patrik know about some wonderful under-the-radar authors and illustrators. Let’s salute Kadir and other African-American kidlit trailblazers and up-and-comers too. I hope Essence will make children’s books a regular part of their literary coverage.

You know, no matter how much recognition Kadir receives, I ain’t mad at him. I applaud him each and every time he receives another award, or is featured in the media. He really is the best at what he does, he deserves it. I hope he remains on top for years to come. I like his work that much.
