Waiting for taco time

It’s Friday! For Ren in Kimchi Taco Time, Friday night is taco night. So Friday seems the perfect day to announce this new book, written by June Jo Lee and me. The book will be published on October 6, one day before National Taco Day on October 7, just in time for taco-loving readers (and who does not love tacos?) to purchase the book and celebrate Taco Day.

June Jo and I had taco fun writing this book and we think you will have fun reading it.  I’ll be sharing more news about the book in future posts.
