Testimonials

Angelica and the Buzz is exactly what I was looking for! My daughter is going through some big changes, and this book helped her feel seen and understood. She loved Angelica's journey, and we both laughed out loud at some parts (especially with that character named Damien!). It's a great conversation starter, and I highly recommend it for any young girl navigating the ups and downs of growing up."

Sarah M Mom of a 10-year-old

"As a young Black woman, I rarely saw characters who looked like me in the books I read growing up. Angelica and the Buzz is such a refreshing change! Angelina's story is relatable on so many levels, and the author does a fantastic job of capturing the complexities of friendship, family, and self-discovery. This book is a must-read for any young person, but especially for girls of color who deserve to see themselves reflected in literature."
