and Latin American culture through picture board books. As a result, Lil Libros was created to inspire parents to read to their children and encourage them to do so in two languages.
Lil Libros celebrates Latin American culture and important figures in its history. Their books honor beautiful stories like the life of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo and Cuban music icon, Celia Cruz, in English and Spanish. Rich and colorful illustrations also introduce them to concepts like first words, numbers, colors, shapes and biographies.
They believe childrens books are seeds that, when nourished, allow for a child to turn their dreams into reality. Their goal is to make the world a better place by providing authentic stories that promote inclusivity and love.
Collins Visual Media helped to make their exhibit very popular by creating an 8′ x 15′ media wall of a library. In addition they created five, life-size cutouts of characters from their books about Selena, Celia Cruz, Luchador, El Chavo, and Frida.
