NASHVILLE, Tenn. — March 25, 2026 — Award-winning author, resilience expert, and TEDx speaker Reggie D. Ford announces the release of his new children's book, I Am the Rose, an empowering story designed to help young readers build confidence, emotional strength, and self-belief.

The book follows a young boy struggling with self-doubt who discovers a vibrant rose growing through solid concrete. Through this powerful metaphor and the guidance of his grandmother, he learns that difficult seasons do not define who we are, and that growth and strength are always possible.
