A Chicago Public Library Best Book of 2016 Author descriptionSusan Middleton Elya is the author of many books that cleverly incorporate Spanish vocabulary into lively verse, including "Little Roja Riding Hood," illustrated by Susan Guevara, and "Oh No, Gotta Go!," illustrated by G. Brian Karas. Her writing has been described as Perfect for bilingual classes stretching their English wings and a charming way to introduce Spanish to English speakers ("Kirkus Reviews," starred review). Juana Martinez-Neal grew up and studied painting in Lima, Peru, and now lives with her family in Scottsdale, Arizona. Her children appear in the artwork for Little Boy "Azul," Twinkle, Twinkle, Small "Estrella," and I See "la Luna," and their playfulness inspired many of the antics in the other scenes. This is her first picture book." |
