Her name means \"king\", that she is a leader, and she is determined to keep growing into the name her parents gave her. She is all about trying to see the best in people, to be a good daughter, sister, and friend. But Ryan has a lot on her mind. For instance: Dad finally has a new job, but money is still tight. That means some changes, like moving into a new (old) house, and Dad working the night shift. And with the fourth-grade talent show coming up, Ryan wonders what talent she can perform on stage in front of everyone without freezing. As even more changes and challenges come her way, Ryan always finds a way forward and shows she is a girl who knows how to glow. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Acclaimed author Renée Watson writes her own version of Ramona Quimby, one starring a Black girl and her family, in this start to a charming series. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eAcclaim for \u003ci\u003eWays to Make Sunshine\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003eBest Children's Book of the Year A \u003ci\u003eParents \u003c\/i\u003eMagazine Best Book of the Year A \u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e Best Book of the Year A \u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews \u003c\/i\u003eBest Book of the Year A \u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e Best Book of the Year A \u003ci\u003eWORLD \u003c\/i\u003eMagazine Best Book of the Year An Amazon Best Book of the Year\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRenée Watson is a #1 \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author.
