Latina author of children’s books visits BWE

The BWE PTA’s Cultural Arts Committee was honored to host Ms. Ferrari Lopez as a guest speaker for our Cultural Arts for the 2023-2024 school year.

Ms. Lopez shared with students in all grade levels the process of creating, writing, and illustrating her book, The Adventures of Amazing Grace. She also emphasized the importance of reading stories about diverse cultures and with characters from different backgrounds. Her own family is of Guatemalan and Argentinian descent. Blending Spanish language and customs seamlessly into an adventure story with a dash of magical realism, the book is sure to delight children’s imaginations and is printed in a dyslexic-friendly format and font.
