“96 Facts About Beyoncé” Comes Out in June!

Very early in my career, I was a writer for Teen Beat. (Not a joke! If you don’t believe me, Google it.) One of the Teen Beat articles I wrote was a cover story on Destiny’s Child. That’s how long ago I did that: Destiny’s Child was still a pop group. Of course, the most famous member of that group was Beyoncé. Why am I bringing that up? Okay, you know the “96 Facts” series? Those middle-grade nonfiction books I write that always seem to come out on a Tuesday? Well…

The next “96 Facts” book will come out from Penguin Random House on Tuesday June 10th, 2025. That book is called 96 Facts About Beyoncé. Like all of the previous “96 Facts” books, this one was written by yours truly and illustrated by the amazing Risa Rodil.

Here’s the official publisher description of 96 Facts About Beyoncé:

The ultimate fact book and journal for fans of Beyoncé. Packed with fun facts, quick quizzes, and bonus pages for journaling, this is a must-have for any members of the BeyHive.

The book is available for preorder HERE, HERE, and HERE.
