蜜柚直播

鈥淚 am grateful and proud for all of the recognition it is receiving and honored to have been included in the literary portion by Marcela Davison Avil茅s, who is one of the cultural consultants of the movie,鈥� said Capin Rivera-Ashford, an award-winning bilingual children鈥檚 book author who translated the read-along with CD for 鈥淐oco鈥� into Spanish.

Capin Rivera-Ashford collaborated on the project with her son, Aar贸n Rivera-Ashford, of Los Angeles, and they both also worked on her latest book, 鈥淢iguel and the Amazing Alebrijes,鈥� which is a related adventure book for 鈥淐oco.鈥�

鈥淲orking with my son was an honor, and our strengths complement each other,鈥� she said. 鈥淲e were able to bring an educational, historical and cultural flair to 鈥淢iguel and the Amazing Alebrijes.鈥�

She also wrote the Spanish translation for the 鈥淐oco鈥� related adventure book 鈥淢iguel and the Grand Harmony鈥�, written by Matt de la Pe帽a.

Capin Rivera-Ashford grew up in Nogales and has lived in 蜜柚直播 nearly 30 years. She said that living along the U.S.-Mexico border made her 鈥渇ortunate enough to grow up with the languages, cultures and love of humanity鈥� that the border teaches. She said those teachings are part of what makes 鈥淐oco鈥� an amazing film. She said she and Davison Avil茅s, also a native of Nogales, have the border teachings in common.

鈥淚 also want to thank Heather Knowles, a Disney editor of the 鈥淐oco鈥� literary project, for being a professional mentor and creative delight to work with,鈥� Capin Rivera-Ashford said.

On top of hearing about the 鈥淐oco鈥� nominations for two Academy Awards, Capin Rivera-Ashford said she also learned Tuesday morning that Disney has requested her to work on another 鈥淐oco鈥�-related adventure book. 鈥淚 have to have the first drafts ready by the middle of March,鈥� she said.
