Diana J Zambrano grew up with a single mother in Bogotá, Colombia. She has written over seventy stories about Miss Pecosita. Miss Pecosita's Day at Work is the first book in her series The Adventures of Miss Pecosita, and it was inspired by her own mother's courage, hard work, and generosity to others. Since 1993, Diana has worked as a nanny and certified baby nurse. She loves to read to children and hopes the questions at the end of her books will help young readers and caregivers reflect on big questions and bond through conversation. She lives in New York.
