Little Elephants/Elefantitos (Canticos)
Encantos Media Studios
Little Elephants is based on a traditional Mexican counting song. It is also one of the oldest methods of putting children to sleep as it can go on and on, each verse getting repeated, the only thing changing being the number in the verse.
The song describes how a number of elephants come to be balancing on a spider web much to the chagrin of the annoyed spider. In this book when it gets to 5, they all fall down leaving the spider very relieved. -
Little Chickies/Los Pollitos (Canticos)
Encantos Media Studios PBC
"Los Pollitos Dicen," or "Little Chickies Squeal" is one of the most popular songs in the Spanish speaking world, akin to "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" in English. This English adaptation of the song is as catchy and lyrical as the Spanish version and sure to engage new audiences not familiar with the original song. The song is an homage to the demanding nature of babies and the unconditional love, care, and warmth given to them by their mommies.

Mills Tannenbaum Award for Childhood Literacy
Reach out and Read NYC
The Mills Tannenbaum Award for Children’s Literacy is given annually since 2013 to a children’s book author or illustrator who is dedicated to promoting a lifelong love of reading in young children. This year, we wanted to recognize someone who embodies the importance of diversity and inclusion in children’s literature.

This year, we wanted to recognize someone who embodies the importance of diversity and inclusion in children’s literature.
The award was created in honor of Gary Tannenbaum and Helen Mills, who are long-time advocates of children’s literacy in New York and dedicated supporters of the Reach Out and Read of Greater New York early literacy program.
“It’s so important that all children have access to high-quality books that excite their imaginations and expand their horizons,” the award founders said.
As a proud Venezuelan-American mother of two children, Jaramillo is dedicated to telling the stories of cultures that are not represented through technology, entertainment, advertisement, media, and marketing. Her commitment to women and diversity initiatives and creative and design education, has led her to obtain her B.A. in communication design with a focus on painting & illustration from the Pratt Institute.
In 2015, she co-founded Encantos Media as a public benefit corporation. Encantos Media is an award-winning company that believes kids learn literacy and life skills best through play.
“Our school systems are stuck in the last century, focused on one-size fits all curriculum and testing – kids are yearning to be inspired. Entertainment makes deep connections with kids- they want to live in Arendale, they want to go to Hogwarts – but education remains rote, boring, one note,” according to Encantos Media.
In order to teach children 21st century skills, Encantos Media provides digital and physical product subscriptions such as apps, animated series, books, puzzles, and games that inspire kids to learn about the world through diverse entertainment, centric play-based education, and kid-friendly technology. -
