⨠I grew up between English at school and Spanish at home. My parents hoped Iâd grow up bilingualâbut I didnât take it seriously as a kid. Instead, bilingualism felt frustrating, sometimes even shameful around relatives. Even though I understood everything in Spanish, I didnât always have the confidence to speak it.
đWhile reading TĂo Ricky Doesnât Speak English by Maritere Bellas @latinaboomermom and illustrated y @jayrisart I saw myself in the main character, Enrique. I related to him so much! And I couldnât help but thinkâif I had a book like this growing up, bilingualism might have felt like a superpower sooner.
â¨If I had seen bilingualism reflected like this as a kid in a picture book maybe I wouldâve felt more confident in my voice. If no one highlights bilingualism (other than your parents) as something valuable, itâs easy (as a kid) to internalize the opposite: that itâs a barrier, something to hide, or something that makes you âdifferent â in a negative way.
â¨It took me many years to relearn and today I still struggle with some words, but I am much more confident and proud!â¤ď¸đ

Holaaaa! Como tengo un tiempo dejando enfriar esta cuenta, vuelvo y me presento 𤣠Soy Jayri, ilustradora y autora de cuentos infantiles. He ilustrado mås de 40 libros y esta vez quiero compartir un poco sobre Just Like the Moon.
Un proyecto muy especial: una historia sensible contada desde los ojos de una niĂąa que transforma los momentos difĂciles en algo mĂĄgico. Escrito por Maite RodrĂguez, trata el tema de la anemia falciforme de una forma cĂĄlida y cercana~
El libro lo pueden encontrar en Amazon, Barnes & Noble y Walmart~!!
