A children’s book celebrating culture, family, and what it really means to be a cool kid.


Oh Si Chancla is a joyful, culturally rooted children’s book that celebrates confidence, family connection, and the playful traditions many of us grew up with. Through bright illustrations and a lovable chancla character, kids learn that being a “cool kid” is about kindness, courage, and staying true to who you areFollow our young heroeveryday challenges with the help of a magical, wise, and surprisingly funny chancla who teaches life lessons with heart (and a little sass). Together, they discover how to handle big feelings, make good choices, and shine in their own unique way.
Perfect for parents, teachers, and caregivers, Oh Si Chancla blends humor, culture, and empowerment into a story kids will want to read again and again. It’s a celebration of heritage, family love, and the superpowers every child already carries inside.
I’m a storyteller born and raised in East Los Angeles, CA, the proud child of immigrant parents, and a survivor of a mom whose chancla aim was Olympic‑level accurate. Those early “lessons” shaped my humor, my hustle, and my love for the culture that raised me.
I have poured all of that into creating this book that celebrate familia, confidence, and the kind of inside jokes only our communities truly get. My hope is that this book shares those lessons with a gentler kind of chancla and gives parents a starting point for bigger conversations rooted in guidance and love.
