Big First Day
Alyssa Reynoso-Morris is the author of Gloriana, Presente. In the book, Gloriana is starting school. She is nervous. She does not speak much English. Spanish is her first language. Reynoso-Morris had the same experience.
She spoke to TFK Kid Reporter Safiyyah Hussain. She wanted to make sure Gloriana was “strong and relatable,” she said. And she wanted to show that her culture is a source of strength. Reynoso-Morris hopes readers learn from Gloriana. “No matter what they’re going through, they can overcome it,” she said.
