Praise for Fibbed
“A“Elizabeth Agyemang smartly weaves culture, adventure, and a little magic into a dynamic story about stories. Agyemang’s colorful illustrations breathe life into Nana’s journey as she connects with her roots and learns to believe in her own voice. At its core, FIBBED is a bold reminder that stories—and those who tell them—have power.”
—Booki Vivat, New York Times bestselling author of the Frazzled series
“Thoughtful metafiction with an unshakeable cultural richness.”
—Kirkus Reviews
