Interview From Up Above
October 17, 2016
For Aruba’s 14th Children’s Book Festival I was interviewed at a very unique location: the California Lighthouse! This was no coincidence. The interview was supposed to take place at my working place, but I picked the setting of one of my newest stories, due for publication shortly. The footage is in Papiamento.
