Mayra Ottati Stern got the idea of writing all the "Alex's Bilingual Children's Book Series" because she could not find that many bilingual children's books for kids ages 3 to 8 in the area where she lives. Many times she found herself reading a book in English to her son and then translating it into Spanish so he would practice both languages. Other times, she found herself reading a book in Spanish and translating it into English so her son would understand. She also found that it was hard to find a bilingual book with a good message at the end of the story. Mayra Ottati Stern was born in Caracas, Venezuela. She lives in Florida, U.S.A. with her husband Ben, son Alex & her two Pomeranian… dogs.Please let Mayra know what you think of her books by emailing her at:MayraOttatiStern@gmail.comYou can also visit her web page at:https://sites.google.com/site/alexsbilingualchildrensbooksFollow us on Facebook:facebook.com/AlexsBilingualChildrensBookSeries
