In this Author Spotlight episode, we are joined by the amazing Yaritza Villalba, author of the McKenzie's Adventure series, which includes "McKenzie's Time Machine" and "McKenzie's Bisabuela". As an educator and author, Yaritza understands the importance of representation in children's literature and how it impacts a child's educational experience. In her own words, "It's important that every child understands the connection between the past and their bright future".

Yaritza joins Melody McAllister on the “Growth Over Grades” podcast Season 2, Ep. 3.

All in efforts to make sure her daughter grew up knowing who she is, where she came from and her God given right to tell her own story. Join us as we look at this journey, explore the resource gap and look forward to some exciting products coming our way from Yaritza herself.
