Patricio on a Shelf

Sophia Maria Griner

Meet Patricio, the pizza-making monkey, Arabella, the flower-loving unicorn, and Marco Polo, the cupcake expert giraffe. In their own little world of a children's bookshelf, things get a little rough when the pizza smell drifts into Arabella's flower smells. But their problem solving, communication, and forgiving nature work together like magic!

About Author

Sophia Maria Griner

I, Sophia Maria Griner, began writing children’s books several years ago and Patricio On A Shelf is actually my third book. I fi rst started by writing for a small newspaper in Kansas. I now live in Texas near my children and grandchildren and I love writing stories about families—whether human or animal—that show problem-solving and encourage children to think about the world around them. I enjoy illustrations that are colorful, expressive, and full of action. I also often try to highlight the importance of the library, which is one of my favorite places to be.
