<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Poppins;color:#1F497D">Cathy’s contributions to children literature go beyond the fact she wrote amazingly entertaining books; Cathy represents all Arab-American children who cannot find representation in our books
and consequently feel excluded and ostracized by the dominant culture.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Poppins;color:#1F497D">I met Cathy when she delivered a presentation at REFORMA’s Mock Pura Belpre Award in 2019. I was impressed with her eagerness to transport children to a new dimension where cultural roots
are meant to be celebrated. Cathy and illustrator Raul the Third were able to immerse kids from all cultures and backgrounds into the Latino culture in a beautiful and ludic way.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Poppins;color:#1F497D">I was a little Latina who loved books and was always seeking to connect with the stories I read. When I read Cathy’s Lowriders Series I felt like a child again, but at this time, overwhelmed
with joy for being transported to a place in literature that finally made sense to me.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Poppins;color:#1F497D">I would like to congratulate Cathy for her commitment with diversity and inclusion as she continues to uplift, encourage, and promote positive representation to underserved and underrepresented
young readers.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
