Inspired by her family and three children, Valladolid’s book will celebrate tradition, culture, and the Latino-American experience.

“Cultural preservation through food has been at the core of my life mission since the beginning of my culinary career,” said Marcela. “To now be able to publish a book of my family recipes for children is a lifelong dream come true. To be able to accomplish this in partnership with the leading bilingual children's book publisher in the US, also spearheaded by Latinas, is more than I could ever hope for. Our stories need to be heard and I can't think of a better vehicle to do so with than the foods my family and I grew up with in Mexico.”

Publication is set for fall 2021. Lil’ Libros co-founders Patty Rodriguez and Ariana Stein acquired the book; Brandi Bowles at United Talent Agency and Seven XV Ventures represented the author.
