Bealum writes that Soares “got the idea after attending some city council meetings about legalization. People kept asking “BUT WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN?!!”
“Her answer: “What about terrorism? What about pharmaceutical drugs? Fucking talk to your kids about it. That’s it.” She told me the book is based on the time her grandkids came to visit and saw her throw a few cannabis leaves into her blender while making a smoothie. “He wanted to know what I was doing so I told him. He wanted to know why some things are only for grown ups.”
- Jimmy Fallon recently featured the book in his #donotread segment.
