Blazer Sophomore Co-authors Poetry Book

Blazer sophomore Shannon Taylor has recently had a book of poetry co-authored by her father, Kollin L. Taylor, published by Amazon. This is the 12th book of poetry written by Mr. Taylor, but it is the first one co-authored by his daughter. 

Mr. Taylor was born on the Caribbean island of Jamaica, and had not returned home for 17 years. The book is about his journey back to Jamaica that he recently took with his daughter.  While visiting Jamaica, Shannon saw her father writing poetry, just like she has witnessed throughout her life. This time was different, however, as Shannon was inspired by her visit to Jamaica. Together, father and daughter co-wrote Cool Breeze - Irie Man, which Shannon is credited for writing two of the poems.  The book is available on Amazon.com (click the image below for the link).  Way to go Shannon, The View is proud of YOU!
