Brown’s poetic narratives connect young people with the Latino culture by featuring its traditions and its renowned artists.
“Monica Brown is like one of the characters she writes about in her bilingual books: moved by her heritage, inspired by the beauty of the Spanish language and passionate about her work.
Brown, an associate professor of English at Northern Arizona University, returned to teaching this fall after taking a semester-long sabbatical to write more bilingual books for children. Four will be published within the next two years: Butterflies on Carmen Street, a picture book from Pinata Books; The Life of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, from Luna Rising; Chavela’s Magic Rainforest Chicle, from Luna Rising; and Pele and 1000 Goals, from HarperCollins/Rayo publishers.”
