Booklist featured Abuelita and I Make Flan!

 


If you want to learn more about Spanish-language storytimes and some great books to get you started, Booklist just published an article featuring my debut picture book Abuelita and I Make Flan in this article!

It's a super long URL, though, but here is the link to the online version.

Building a bilingual library can be daunting if you don't speak the language, and the article advocates for some really practical strategies. Very proud to have a book included in the suggestions!

And if you're not sure how to pronounce the Spanish words in the book, I have a video you can watch it's here in this blog post!

How to Pronounce: ABUELITA AND I MAKE FLAN

I wanted to share the pronunciation Guide for Readers of ABUELITA AND I MAKE FLAN. Here I read the glossary which includes all the words in Spanish in case you or your readers want to know how we say them.
