Debut Spotlight: Andrea Beatriz Arango
Manage episode 341036264 series 2869689
On this very exciting episode of the Las Musas Podcast, we spotlight debut middle grade Musa, Andrea Beatriz Arango, in conversation with Karina Gonzalez about her book Iveliz Explains It All, what inspired Andrea to write kidlit, writing characters struggling with mental health—anxiety, depression, and PTSD specifically—writing not just friendships but family and growing up knowing multiple generations of your family in kidlit books. Also, we get into the importance of Iveliz's message for its intended audience and looking more broadly, and Andrea's hopes for Iveliz's story as it goes out into the world.
