He is known for his viral music videos and hit songs, "Welcome to the 4th Grade" and "Welcome to Kindergarten." When he's not writing, rapping, or teaching, Dwayne can be found presenting at educator conferences across the US, or loving on his beautiful wife, Simoné, and their son, Chase.

Reviews
"An endearing story ... The sweet family dynamics, particularly between the brothers, carry this story, which is less concerned with Juneteenth's history than it is about depicting an upbeat, modern celebration." --Booklist
"Reed's conversational rhymes and Jose's cartoon-style digital illustrations capture the celebratory air of the family's local Juneteenth festivities, the heightened state of the main character's emotions, and the bolstering support that a close family relationship can bring."--Publishers Weekly
