Monica Rojas
Agent: Allison Remcheck PernettiMonica Rojas grew up in Saint Paul, MN, where she spent her childhood reading books, dancing, and traveling. She now lives on the other side of the river, in Minneapolis, with her wife and two children, under piles of library books.
Monica worked in public education, as a bilingual teacher's aide, for over a decade. When she isn't writing, she works as a community installation artist bringing stories to light through visual art, puppetry, and interactive programs.
Monica's debut picture book, Nana and Abuela (Minnesota Historical Society Press, 2023), recounts memories and stories from her own childhood when she mixed her Spanish and English together into her own language.
