Meet author and Board of Advisor Martiza M. Mejia:

The Purple Shell by Maritza M. Mejia

LuzDelMes Ecotales invite you to be aware of how to take care of the planet. On her first trip to the sea, a lovely girl realized how much garbage people leave in the sand and decided to clean up the beach with her mother. After collecting sodas and wraps, they found a purple shell, which they received with joy as a reward for such a laudable task. This bilingual tale (English & Spanish) is based on a true story. It contains coloring pages, facts, and questions to take care of our planet, our common home.

La concha de mar púrpura de Maritza M. Mejia

Cuento Ecológicos LuzDelMes invitan a tener conciencia de cómo cuidar el planeta.En su primer viaje al mar, una niña encantadora se dio cuenta de la cantidad de basura que la gente deja en la arena y decidió limpiar con su madre la playa. Después de recoger sodas y envolturas, encontraron una concha purpura, la que recibieron con alegría como premio de tan loable tarea. Este cuento bilingüe (ingles & espanol) esta basado en una historia real. Contiene páginas para colorear, datos y preguntas para cuidar nuestro planeta, nuestra casa común omún.

    The Purple Shell is a heart-warming, “read-to-me,” or “read along” story. As a Honduran, I welcomed the English/Spanish wording. In addition, Ms. Mejia keeps the level of her audience in sight.
    The care for Mother Earth makes this story a great classroom choice. I can see creative art, science, and writing projects all around the classroom. Yeah! Wonderful job!
