I had never heard of this series of books. They were obviously published long after I was at that age and I don't recall my daughter reading them either. Your wiki has gained my attention and I think I may take a closer look a some of these books. It sounds like she is a great spokeswoman for education and young people everywhere. I love that she drew her inspiration for the sassy books from a young girl who shared with her that there were very few reading options for African American girls that they could relate to. Looks like I will be visiting the library in search of her books.
