Viva Frida





Morales, Y. (2014). Viva Frida! NY, NY: Roaring Brook Press.

Summary: Viva Frida by Yuyi Morales is a spectacular book with Frida Kahlo portrayed throughout the book, while introducing words in both Spanish and English. It tells the story of a young woman whose life was so intense but never stops searching, exploring, loving, creating, and living! The illustrations are bold, vibrant, and animated.

Review: Children will enjoy looking at the wonderful illustrations that look so real. Nevertheless, I believe it can be a little unclear if not explained. The lack of words may confuse the children because they would need to use the illustrations to get a deeper meaning.


An insight into the making of the book Viva Frida.
