Writing was always a creative outlet for Helen Ketteman and one day, over a meal of Mexican gorditas, she thought of a story idea that would feature a brave gordita on a wild adventure, akin to the fairytale classic, the Gingerbread Boy.

Listen to this podcast as Natomas Unified promotes literacy and shares Ketteman's love of story building; her infusion of Spanish words in her book, Señorita Gordita; and how important it is to read with your family each day. 

You can buy Ketteman's books from her website or from Amazon.
