TeeBee loves to hang out with his Papa.
Time flies by the most when..." My name is Tavarius Felton, and I'm the author of "TeeBee Goes to the Fair."
Sometimes when your thoughts become over complicated, it's easier to write them, and then once you write them, it's easier to draw them.
And so that's why I honestly started to write.
[bright upbeat music] The biggest thing about my book is emotional intelligence.
As we grow older, we learn about therapy and mental health, but what if we learn it as kids?
Well, I just wanted parents and kids to understand that it's okay to know that you can say this stuff to children in a nice way.
♪ Being a author is really just loving what you create.
People will get to see a little bit of everyone.
If you really make a book that is diverse, everybody can relate to it somewhere in there.
"We learn something new every day, Papa."
The end.
