Momma Llama’s ABC Book of Latin America immerses young readers in the culture of Central and South America one letter of the alphabet at a time. Why was this an important book for you to write?

We looked at other ABC books and realized we had a job to do because there wasn’t one quite like this yet.

This is such a unique setup for a children’s book that teaches cultural aspects. What made you decide to use this particular format?

Some of the topics featured in the book span multiple countries and regions. We wanted to provide extra context and make the book interesting and enriching for parents and teachers who use it. We’ve had a few grown-ups comment that they learned new things from our ABC book.

What is one thing you hope young readers and their families will take away from your book?

Whether our images make children want to draw their own or the animals and places ignite curiosity in biology or geography, Momma Llama and Friends hope to inspire children!

What is the next book you are working on, and when will it be available?

Two books are in development; one is for active readers and the other deals with fear and anxiety. Production begins this summer. If readers want more Momma Llama, we have other offerings like Momma Llama’s Enchiladas, Momma Llama’s Road Trip Activity Book, and coloring and workbook versions of our ABC book. All of which can be accessed through www.mommallamaworld.com.

We also have some freebies, like coloring pages, to share.
