How to Eat a Mango
​Coming 2024

ABOUT HOW TO EAT A MANGO...

Neal Porter at Holiday House/Neal Porter Books has bought world rights to How to Eat a Mango, a picture book by debut author Paola Santos in which a girl picks and eats mangoes with her abuelita and discovers a deeper connection to her people. Juliana Perdomo (Sometimes All I Need Is Me) will illustrate. Publication is scheduled for summer 2024; Jennifer Rofé at Andrea Brown Literary Agency represented the author, and Erica Rand Silverman at Stimola Literary Studio represented the illustrator.

ABOUT PAOLA...

​Paola Santos is a children´s book author born and raised in Venezuela. She defines herself as a seeker who wonders at the world like a child and as a person that loves to give voice to deep emotions. Her work brings forward the celebration of her own culture and the blending that inevitably occurs when immigrants first step into a different land. Her writing also calls to cherish people’s differences and similarities. 


Paola holds a bachelor’s degree in Literature and a master’s degree in Children’s Literature and Reading Promotion from the Castilla-La Mancha University in Spain.
