OUR STORY
Krissa Lagos, Alma Landeta, and Caroline Mar are three mixed-heritage queer creators living in the San Francisco Bay Area. Based on our friendships and values, we decided to join forces and skills as a collective in 2020. Caper Collective exists to make beautiful narratives that increase diversity in children’s books. We caper, we play, we adventure, we resist.
CURRENT BOOK IN-PROGRESS
Shahan’s Recipe
Readers will follow Shahan through a day of visiting and learning to cook with family members biological and chosen, Spanish- and English-speaking, LGBTQ and straight. Targeting readers aged 4-8—an age at which many children are curious about cooking and want to help out in the kitchen—it will include kid-friendly recipes at the end of the book so families can continue their culinary journey off the page!
