Jada
Jada was a senior at Thurgood Marshall Academy when she wrote Tyrell’s Big Move. She works at Six Flags America. In her spare time she likes to eat and skateboard. This is her first children’s book. The experience was fun and challenging. Writing this book showed her that she can work with other people to put something good together, which she thought she couldn’t do. She hopes readers will relate to the story and that this book helps kids learn how to read.

Tyrell loves his neighborhood -- the park with the swing set, the library with the puppet shows, the restaurant with the star-shaped spaghetti. But the neighborhood has been changing a lot lately, and one day Tyrell comes home to learn that his building has been bought and everyone must move. It seems like the worst news ever, but Tyrell’s cousin Breonna has a plan for making the most of it. How can Tyrell learn how to move on and be OK?
This heartfelt story about dealing with change is both sweet and smart, coming from teen authors who know the realities of handling transitions -- and about changing neighborhoods in Washington, DC.
