I’ve amassed quite a substantial library of children’s books over the years, but I never seem to have enough by Latino authors! This is why I was excited to participate in Latinas 4 Latino Literature Blog Hop, where 20 Latino authors and/or illustrators were partnered with 20 Latina bloggers for guest posts on their respective [...]
We celebrate by making green eggs and ham, reading our entire Dr. Seuss library, watching The Cat in the Hat, and playing some games. What about you? Did you do anything special today? This year is extra special because Maura (my Kindergartner) can now read a few Dr. Seuss books herself. Hop on Pop is [...]
It’s isn’t hard to find a sweet treat for kids to eat at Halloween time.

My kids are big on presentation, so I thought some [...]

The Adventure of Wormee the Worm by Ricky Mickiewicz Sometimes less is more. An illustrated book with very little text can engage the reader to use his/her imagination to create and tell a story all their own. But Wormee the Worm misses the mark here. It’s a rather straightforward tale of how a worm ends [...]
Where Does Mommy Go? by Shelley Hallier; illustrated by Richele Collins I recently had our second child and was able to stay home for an extended maternity leave. I cherished every moment, but it was just as hard to go back to work (maybe even more the second time). The constant pulling of emotions and guilt [...]
