| Publisher Description: A young boy by the name of Eazy goes to visit Grandma Moses, his grandmother, during the summer while attending camp. Known amongst the elders in the community as being part of Grandma's Get Right Gang (GRG), Eazy finds himself being challenged by his best friend Boobie and cousin Thunda to keep up with the latest trends. Not understanding the economic struggles in which Grandma Moses has to endure, Eazy relies on his charm when approaching her for his latest request. In order for Eazy to learn a valuable lesson, Grandma Moses feels that who better to teach him then her? Marla Lafayette is an author, devoted mother and wife. She attended Alabama A&M University for undergraduate studies, and later received her Master's in Community Psychology. At a very young age, Marla realized that she loved reading and writing stories as a hobby. By having young children, Marla found it very difficult to find books that her kids could relate too, so she took it upon herself to create children's books based off of her childhood, and humorous personalities displayed by her children. With a passion for reading and education, she hopes that her books not only restore the desire to read in young children, but also to help children learn morals and values in life. |
