Dear Educator,



We wanted you to be the first to know about an exciting school visit
opportunity with Emma Otheguy as part of the launch of her new middle grade
novel, Cousins in the Time of Magic
<https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Cousins-in-the-Time-of-Magic/Emma-Otheguy/9781665915182>
(2/25/25).



Emma is partnering with Books Are Magic to offer free virtual author visits
to schools that pre-order the book. Participating schools will receive an
engaging virtual presentation from Emma, signed bookplates, and a bookmark
for every student.





About the Book

History is alive with magic! Emma’s upcoming series, Cousins in the Time of
Magic, takes kids on an action-packed journey through the U.S. Civil War
and the historic Battle of Puebla in Mexico (the reason we celebrate Cinco
de Mayo).



For years, Emma has heard from educators that they need big concepts and
big adventures without the uphill reading slog. Cousins in the Time of
Magic is just that–illustrated, action-packed, and full of the history that
kids need to know, all under 200 pages. It includes detailed back matter
for teachers and librarians, and it is available in English and Spanish. You
can learn more about the book and see the cover here

.





About the Presentation

Emma will introduce the series and characters, teach students about the real
history of Cinco de Mayo, read aloud from the book, and take questions from
the audience. Emma is a native bilingual and will happily offer the
45-minute virtual presentation in the language of your choice. Visits are
available between January 2nd – February 14th, 2025.
