I'm doing some quick reading and not seeing anything anywhere about her being a children's book author. Now that is not to say that people can't take up new industries or ventures, but damn how suspicious can you get…

Pugh initially said that the University of Maryland Medical System were her only book sales, but on April 1, 2019, the Baltimore Sun reported that Kaiser Permanente paid more than $100,000 for copies of the book, and a nonprofit called Associated Black Charities paid Pugh's organization nearly $80,000 for copies of the book. Both organizations do business with the city of Baltimore. Associated Black Charities in turn resold some of its copies to other organizations, including CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, another Baltimore insurer.[23][24]

So nobody bought her books except the agencies/companies that were paying out kickbacks…
Not exactly the smartest scammer!
