Review for Keyana Loves Her Family
This is a super adorable children’s book about a little girl with big plans. I laugh as I say she has a big attitude too – don’t get in her way when she’s about to dazzle everyone. Her best-laid plans start to unravel and end up coming apart. While having a meltdown, an even bigger and better idea came to Keyana. The evening was saved with the help of the people she loves the most. Oh, the illustrations are wonderful too.
