Jewish Argentine author Ana María Shua has written over 180 books, many for children, but has never had a children's book published in the US–until now! She was kind enough to answer some interview questions in English about her career and her new book, "The Passover Pet Surprise." We hope you enjoy reading about how she combines her Latine and Jewish heritages in this multicultural picture book.
