My name is Sherri Winston and I am proud to share this space with you. Thank you for visiting. I am the author of President of the Whole Fifth Grade, as well as my latest book, Lotus Bloom and the Afro Revolution, which was long listed for a National Book Award. I also recently published my first book for early readers, Wednesday and Woof: Catastrophe along with several other books in the series. I was born and raised in Michigan and attended Michigan State University, then much later the University of Michigan as a journalism fellow. I am the proud mama of daughter, Kenya, and a proud aunt many times over.
