The Things My Grandmother Used to Say is a carefully, constructed compilation of idioms spoken by the author's maternal grandmother. Not having a full understanding of the sayings in the author's younger years, her adult years have put the idioms into perspective and have served as lessons learned by listening to words of wisdom. Her motivation is the foundation laid by her ancestors. Her mission is to continue blazing the trail they created.

In My Mimi is the Mayor, Skylar takes the reader on an adventure as she spends time with her grandmother (Mimi) who is an elected official of El Dorado, AR. This story provides a perspective on what is really important. Time spent with loved ones is very precious, and in this story, the relationship between Mimi and Skylar helps to create a narrative for the options Skylar can choose from to liver her life. This reflective keepsake shares inspirational insights on diversity, belonging, and women empowerment. While diversity is important, so is belonging and being your "natural" self! Different hairstyles, attire, and features within El Dorado were all needed to help explore how unique we are in this world!
