Where Kids Jump
Into Spanish Reading
A high-energy, hands-on author visit for PreK–1st grade that makes learning Spanish feel like the best game ever.
PreK–1st Grade Classrooms
A full-class workshop during the school day. Spanish immersion, bilingual, or English-only classrooms are all welcome.
Summer Camps & Programs
Guest speaker sessions and literacy workshops that fit naturally into any summer camp or summer reading program schedule.
Community Events
Nonprofit literacy sessions, library drop-in events, churches, and community programs serving little readers.
Our Time Together
One unforgettable hour. Every activity is adapted for PreK, Kindergarten, or 1st grade. The time can be shortened or extended, as needed. Kids with extra support needs are always included.
Story Time
Kids join in on every page, acting out characters. Energy is high from the very start.
~15 minutesGet Up & Move!
The classroom becomes a giant Spanish literacy game. Kids work in teams to physically build words and race each other to master the letters. It's loud. It's silly. It absolutely works.
~20 minutesCool Down & Create
Time to put it all together. Kids use activity sheets directly inspired by the books to practice their new Spanish reading skills on paper.
~15 minutesShow & Tell
We close by celebrating what every single kid accomplished. They share, cheer each other on, and leave with the confidence of a reader who knows they can do it.
~10 minutesEvery child, every ability. Sessions are designed to fully include students with mobility assistance needs and those who need extra support to catch up. Activities are adapted in advance so no child sits on the sideline.
We Bring Everything. Zero Stress 🙌
We'll start with a 30-minute call to make sure the author visit is adapted for each child's learning needs. From there, I'll handle it all.

Hi, I'm Ashley! 👋🏾
Author · Literacy Advocate · Google Marketing Leader
As a proud Latina and African American mom, I built the series I wished existed: phonics-first, 100% Spanish, and full of stories that feel like home.
These four books are built the way kids actually learn to read: with repetition, movement, and joy. The workshops I run in schools bring those same ideas off the page and into the hands of every child in the room.
Real Readers, Real Reactions 💛
"A lovely gift for our nearly 5-year-old daughter who is learning to read English at school and Spanish with her dad. The sentences are simple yet entertaining (she loved how some rhymed!); and the section at the end where kids can play crosswords and other games makes the story last even longer 💗 Would highly recommend!"
"As an Early Intervention therapist, I love ¡Feliz Cumpleaños, Conejo! It’s perfect for early literacy and language, supporting vocabulary expansion and phonological awareness. The interactive pages make it great for therapy and parents can use it at home to practice reading, asking questions, and building early language skills. I can do so much with just this one book!"
