Thank you to the School Library Journal for this STARRED REVIEW of Claudia Says Si, the latest picture book biography that I wrote with Deborah Bodin Cohen, published by Apples & Honey Press. It is the story of Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo, Mexico's first female President. Also in Spanish.

Sendak had a difficult childhood; many of his relatives were killed in the Holocaust, and he was a sickly boy. He entertained himself by reading children's books,and developed a passion for stories and art. 2/3
