1. San Pedro Letters


The kids from San Pedro School sent me a heap of letters!
After reading what they wrote to me, I am feeling mighty good about the following:

Being smart
Being a good illustrator
Having a pretty dress
Bringing my bolsa de sorpresas
Showing kids my underwear. I got a bunch of thank-you comments for this one. But really, it wasn’t what it sounds like! For instance, I wasn’t wearing it…
Bringing my hats
Reading the kids a book
Playing with my toys
Bringing Señor Calavera
Showing my dog
Being tall (really?)
Singing a song
Taking a picture with the kids
Being the best woman ever
Rising my hands
Bringing “the man who does jumps”
Coming to San Pedro School

Clearly, these children are nice!

2. San Pedro School


The children at San Pedro School spoke English—and Spanish!
In English and Spanish we looked at surprises
We read a book
We sang along with El Gran Miguel Martinez and his music, made especially for us
We cheered
We voted for hats
We did autographs
And they gave me this beautiful thank-you book

At the end some kids even asked for tattoos to be drawn in their hands. This niñas and niños are just not afraid of permanent markets!
