Juana and Lucas by Juana Medina
Winner of the 2017 Pura Belpré Author AwardFans of Judy Moody and Clarice Bean will love Juana, the spunky young Colombian girl who stars in this playful, abundantly illustrated new series.
Juana loves many things -- drawing, eating Brussels sprouts, living in Bogotá, Colombia, and especially her dog, Lucas, the best amigo ever. She does not love wearing her itchy school uniform, solving math problems, or going to dance class. And she especially does not love learning the English. Why is it so important to learn a language that makes so little sense? But when Juana's abuelos tell her about a special trip they are planning--one that Juana will need to speak English to go on--Juana begins to wonder whether learning the English might be a good use of her time after all. Hilarious, energetic, and utterly relatable, Juana will win over los corazones -- the hearts -- of readers everywhere in her first adventure, presented by namesake Juana Medina.
Juana Medina was born and raised in the Colombian capital of Bogotá. She got in trouble at school because she drew cartoon renditions of her professors. All of the scribbling (and trouble) paid off in the end. Smick! is illustrated by Juana Medina. She studied and taught at the Rhode Island School of Design, worked as an illustrator and animator for clients in the United States, South America, and Europe, and presently teaches at George Washington University's Corcoran School of the Arts and Design. Juana Medina is a Washington, D.C. resident.
