Now on The Yarn Podcast: Jesús Trejo and PAPÁ’S MAGICAL WATER JUG CLOCK
Last June I sat down with comedian, actor, and writer Jesús Trejo at the American Library Association Annual Conference. We talked all about his debut picture book Papá’s Magical Water Jug Clock.
That book would go on to receive 2024 Pura Belpré honors for writing and illustration (Eliza Kinkz).

Trejo’s path from standup to picture books was fascinating to hear. You can listen to the episode and subscribe below.
