Paul Rodriguez 

If you played some old-school Hip-Hop beats over a collaboration between Stan Lee (Marvel Comics), Chuck Jones (Looney Tunes Cartoons), and Theodore Geisel (Dr. Seuss), the delightfully funny, funky- fresh, and globally conscience result would be Rodro Books. Paul Rodriguez "Rodro" is the creative mind behind Rodro Books and Education. He is an award-winning author/illustrator whose children's books provide the foundation for his arts-infused SEL programs and community outreach. Rodro's community outreach projects range from Sumatra to San Juan, and his work has been featured in shows from New York to New Orleans. His art and stories are a celebration of life that crosses over and connects kids from all corners of the globe the way cultural traditions cross over to connect humanity.
