About the author

African diaspora history has been either completely ignored or deliberately misconstrued to the point that the descendants are in a constant identity crisis. Realizing this, Quineka Ragsdale knew that a tool was needed to not only teach her children, but also others, unapologetic African diaspora history. Therefore, she decided to create one. The Dallas native and Journalism major began writing the Demarcus Jones book series in 2010. Her natural love for history and writing flowed into a fictional character who brings mystery, adventure and excitement intertwined with factual history. Quineka continues to create historical products that inspire youth, through her company CJK Publishing. Learn more about CJK publishing at www.cjkpublishing.com

 "The Greatest Hall of Fame (Book 2)" is another great Jozef Book and Breakfast with a healthy bowl of homemade granola mix. Quineka Ragsdale brings a young girl's adventure through a maze of rooms to experience defining moments in the lives of American heroes and leaders. Great for MG readers, class book projects, history bowls, and youth programs. Be challenged and motivated to be like Zaria and live out the lessons learned by the amazing heroes she meets. Not only do they look like her but their lives mirror the challenges she overcomes in this adventure. There's so much to learn and many ways to enjoy it with readers. 4.5 stars! #JozefBookandBreakfast

Zaria’s adventures with the Greatest Hall of Fame
