About Sherri Winston
Imagine you've been training yourself for a spy mission your whole entire life. And imagine you suspect your mom of being a spy. Now, imagine your mom's plane crashes while she's piloting it. Alone. No remains recovered. Jada Sly has issuses. She has to find out whether her mother really died or if she's in hiding.
Hi, I'm Sherri Winston, author of Jada Sly, Artist & Spy. I am so proud of this book. It's the first time I illustrated a book and I'm so proud and grateful to Little , Brown and my amazing editor, Nikki, and the wonderful young artist, Marcie, who made it all possible. Other book "babies" include the President of the Whole Fifth Grade series and the lovely, lyrical The Sweetest Sound. I live in Florida where I slay flying bugs with speed and alacrity. I have two daughters, Lauren and Kenya, who always inspire me.
