Exciting news for us. My bilingual picture book, Lupita’s First Dance/El Primer Baile de Lupita, which came out in November 2013 and is illustrated by Gabhor Utomo, is on the 2014-2015 Tejas Star Book Award Reading List. This award is sponsored by the Texas LibraryAssociation (TLA).
Also on the list is my daughter’s (Illustrator Carolyn Dee Flores’) bilingual picture book, Sing/Froggie/Sing/-Canta/Rana/Canta. My daughter and I are thrilled! Congratulations to all the other authors and illustrators who made the list as well. Well deserved!
