Angela Quezada Padron

Angela Quezada Padron is a Latina author-illustrator who spent her childhood days writing stories and doodling on the garage walls of her New Jersey home and summers visiting family in the Dominican Republic. She first started playing soccer at the age of four and volunteered to be the goalie when no one else wanted the position. Angela went on to win Best Goalie and Best Juggler awards as a teenager. This marks her debut as a bilingual picture book author. You can learn more about her at angelapadron.com.
