Type: Picture Book
Local author Supriya Kelkar is a favorite of mine and this picture book is PERFECT for back to school season! So many new names, some easier to remember or pronounce than others. But, our names mean so many things to so many people and our names can be as unique as we are. Signed copies are available!

Tilly in TechnicolorType: Young adult fiction
A thoroughly enjoyable read with truly authentic voices. Tilly and Oliver may happen to identify as neurodiverse but this book and these characters are so much more than that (and aren’t we all neurodiverse in our own way)! A charming romance with a bit of travel narrative, a great deal of humor, and a fantastic escape read!
