The María Collection: Identity, Family & Joy is a beautifully illustrated collector's edition featuring three beloved bilingual picture books that celebrate culture, connection, and childhood joy. Readers meet María, a curious and joyful girl who finds happiness in everyday moments rooted in family, nature, music, and imagination. Across Pequeña María / Little María, María la súper ayudante / The Super Helper, and ¡Pequeña María descubre su baile! / Little María Discovers Her Dance!, children follow María as she plays with siblings and cousins, helps her community, dances to the rhythm of her roots, and delights in simple pleasures like singing with baby chicks and climbing mango trees. Her experiences reflect the warmth and richness of Latine family life. Presented in English and Spanish, this collection supports bilingual literacy and is ideal for classrooms, libraries, and multilingual families. Bonus coloring pages invite children to extend the stories through creativity and play. Perfect for ages 3-8, The María Collection is a joyful celebration of identity, belonging, and growing up proud of who you are.
