I am honored and excited to announce that the Mississippi Library Commission has selected ONE MISSISSIPPI as their 2026 Children’s Book selection for
Great Reads from Great Places from the Mississippi Center for the Book.
Our book will be featured at the National Book Festival in Washington, D.C. in August. This honor is beyond my wildest dreams!
"One Mississippi by Steve Azar, illustrated by Sarah Frances Hardy, is a vibrant children’s book inspired by
Mississippi’s people, places, and culture—and the official state song.
This selection celebrates storytelling, music, and the spirit of Mississippi, and we’re proud to share it
with young readers, families, and libraries across the state.
Learn more and connect with your local library to explore this title." Mississippi Library Commission
