Book Reading with CMIT South Elementary

The children were engaged and enjoyed storytime. I wish you could have seen the smiles on their faces!

Virtual Zoom Reading with Friendship Woodridge PCS

During the pandemic, I had the opportunity to read my book to 84 exceptional little scholars at Friendship Woodridge PCS during a virtual Zoom visit. We planted microgreens, which the students took home to watch their seedlings sprout. We had a fantastic time and planted seeds for a love of reading, too!

As seen on NBC 4

It was a pleasure meeting Jummy! I got a chance to speak on NBC4 about two of my books. It is a day I will never forget!

It was such a delight to hear Tony Perkins say, ‘Is that a frog I see!’

Little Readers, Big Dreamers

She came for the flowers. She stayed for the plot.

A story worth carrying along.

WHO IS POCAHONTAS?

Pocahontas Carter is the founder and CEO of hokeyPoquii LLC (pronounced hokeyPokey). I am a glam-ma and a mother of four, a woman of color with plenty of life lessons to use as a pathway towards the nurturing, growing, and expansion of little traveling minds. Traveling minds can take you places, and I invite you, the reader, to travel with me into a world where my creative thoughts turn into words on paper. I, a DC native, attended John Burroughs Elementary and Taft Junior High. I’m a graduate of McKinley Tech Senior High School (“Go –Trainers!”), my goal is to promote empowerment through children’s literature.

TRAVELING MINDS

Imagine a world where every child is enthralled by the magic of reading, where books are not just pages but portals to endless adventures, sparking creativity and imagination. HokeyPoquii is dedicated to turning this vision into reality, inspiring a love for reading in children that will last a lifetime. We're not just selling books; we're nurturing young minds to become tomorrow's thinkers, dreamers, and innovators.

We are all gifted with imagination. Imagination is such a powerful thing; it sparks new ideas, concepts, and creativity. Reading allows a child to use their imagination. Oh, how we as parents love to read to our babies. It just might be their very first time traveling! Traveling minds can take you places. Let's not forget, all of our great inventions of today started in mind as an idea. Imagination is truly the gift that keeps on giving.
