Some of her most famous works include Arroz con leche: Popular Songs and Rhymes from Latin America, Vejigante Masquerader, and The Bossy Gallito. Delacre's writes books that celebrate her Latino heritage and promote cultural diversity.[1] Early lifeDelacre was born in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico. Her parents are from Argentina and were both teachers at the University of Puerto Rico. As a child she spent many days at her grandmother's house, drawing and coloring on large sheets of white paper. At age ten, a family friend, who was an artist and a teacher encouraged Delacre to enroll in one of her painting classes, where she received formal art training and discovered her passion. In high school, Delacre decided she wanted to become an artist. After graduating she moved to Paris where she studied photography, typography, design and illustration at the Ecole Supérieure d'Arts Graphiques.[2] CareerIn 2004, Delacre's younger daughter, Alicia, was killed in a car accident. Thereafter, Delacre wrote Alicia Afterimage, a nonfiction novel based on conversations Delacre had with Alicia's friends following the accident.[3] In addition to being a full-time author and illustrator, she visits many schools across the country as well as overseas, reading and sharing her literature with children. Delacre currently resides in Silver Spring, Maryland with her husband.[4] Writing styleDelacre creates books that honor the folklore and traditions of her childhood, both in English and Spanish. "I delight in creating books that portray my own culture with authenticity in both words and pictures," Delacre noted on her Web site. "And if painting the people and the places of Latin America true to their own beauty fosters respect; or if sharing some of their golden tales builds bridges, I want to keep on doing it.[5] She says she translates from Spanish to English in her head when she writing in English (that language which she says allows her "to reach the largest audience"), and when she does the Spanish version she tries to make it sound as original and independent as possible.[6] Honors and awards{{portal|Children's literature}}{{BLP unsourced section|date=September 2013}}
