Angela Dominguez

Angela N. Dominguez was born in Mexico City and grew up in Texas. Spanish was her family's first language, and her older brother had to learn English in the first grade. Like Lupita, Angela learned English with his help, so she could be fluent by her first day of school. She received Pura Belpré Illustration Honors for two books: Maria Had a Llama and Mango, Abuela, and Me.
