Having already conquered music charts with hits like ‘Alright’ and ‘On My Mama,’ R&B diva Victoria Monet is undoubtedly looking to garner a similar response on the New York Times’ Best-Sellers List with her first children’s book ‘Everywhere You Are.’
To be printed in English and Spanish-language editions, ‘Everywhere’ will be released courtesy of Putnam Books for Young Readers – an imprint of Penguin Young Readers.

Described as a “lyrical and heartwarming picture book to comfort children experiencing separation anxiety while offering solace to hardworking parents,” ‘Everywhere’ was inspired by Monet’s experiences with the difficulty of juggling superstardom with being a working mom.

I love many types of writing from poetry to music, and eventually script and it has always been a special dream of mine to write children’s books. It brings so much joy to know that families will share moments of reflection, understanding and quality time while reading this book for generations to come,” the 3-time GRAMMY winner shared. “I’m passionate about the subject of the book and explaining it in a way that is digestible for a child. I can’t wait to share it.”
