Authors/Illustrators
*** We are so excited to be visiting with a New York Times best-selling author/illustrator team of more than 50 books for young readers. Linda Lowery and Richard Keep, husband and wife, live in San Miguel de Allende, in central Mexico. Visit [|Linda and Rick's website]to learn more about them.

Over the next few weeks our students will be reading books written by Linda and Richard. We will be dedicating a page for each book on our wiki for literature study by students. We will also be visiting with both Linda and Richard through Skype where students can ask questions and learn more about their books, the colonial Mexican town where the authors live, and the creative process of writing and illustrating.

Here are the books Linda and Richard have written that were inspired by the Mexican culture:
