¡Bienvenidos! Welcome!
"I am thrilled to have the opportunity to work with young children, to be a part of their lives, foster their creativity, and help them express their emotions. My goal is to establish a connection with my readers, share the pleasure of reading, and provide them with the tools to enhance their understanding of different cultures. Thank you for considering me as a guest to visit your school!"
As a writer, I love talking with everybody who enjoys reading or writing. As an immigrant, I love sharing my culture, traditions, and experiences in writing in a second language.
I’m available to do talks and workshops on various topics, like my publishing journey, writing process, and how my culture and family have influenced my stories. Also, I would love to give children a little taste of the crafting process, from the initial idea to the end product and all those things we consider in between.
My goal as author and facilitator is to provide an enjoyable presentation in which everyone has the opportunity to participate. For this reason, all talks and workshops are offered virtually or in person.
As a native Spanish speaker, I love my language, its sounds, and its rhythms. For those schools with bilingual programs, I’ll be happy to adjust my presentations according to curriculum requirements and assist teachers in emphasizing the student’s language learning.
All presentations are available in English or Spanish!
For information about prices, please, download my packages. If you have questions about pricing or the presentations, please, don’t hesitate to contact me. I’ll be more than happy to assist you.
Rachell Abalos, Library Media Assistant at Bandini Elementary School
"(Paola) gave a thorough introduction of herself and the inspiration to her story. While reading, she was very interactive and made the students part of the story. We had over 75 students in attendance! It was a wonderful experience for our school."
Sarah, Elementary Teacher at Nellie Carlson School
"Paola was very engaging, and the students were interested in her beautiful story and interactive presentation!"
Paulina, Kindergarten Teacher at Holy Child School
"ENGAGING! Paola (...) was all about engaging the students through the provoking reading of her book (...). Even though she read virtually, Paola (...) led the class through a movement break relevant to the story. We would be excited to invite Paola back to our classroom and school! Gracias Paola!"
