This was a refreshing program. I enjoyed the simple story line, the wonderful music, illustrations, and interviews. I know that children will enjoy the stories and lessons from this show. Good job Mariela and many thanks to your talented guests.
How can the general public access this program?

Hi Imani,
Thank you for the kind words!
The program will air on Arlington Independent Media and ArlingtonTV on cable (although we’re not sure yet about when), and can be watched online at any time, both here on the Library website and on the Arlington Independent Media Youtube channel.
Amazing program! If I were from a Spanish background, I would feel so affirmed in my heritage from this episode. Thanks for the storytelling ideas.
