In this episode of Rock, Paper, Write, we're turning the tables with special guest host Dr. Jaya Viswanathan who sits down with children’s book author and educator Amy L. Watkins and librarian, media specialist, and translator Johanna de Leon for an engaging conversation about creativity, collaboration, and representation in children’s literature.
Amy shares the inspiration behind Nacho Loves Salsa and its bilingual edition Nacho Ama a Salsa, reflecting on how her rescue dog, her multilingual students, and her commitment to diversity shaped the story. Johanna discusses her path to becoming a librarian, her work translating children’s books, and offers helpful guidance for authors interested in bilingual publishing or getting their books into libraries.
Together, they explore themes of identity, kindness, and cultural pride while highlighting the importance of helping every child feel seen in the books they read. A warm, insightful episode for writers, educators, and anyone who loves meaningful stories for young readers.
