6024_1_lr.jpgRemember "Maria" from Sesame Street? Well her name is Sonia Manzano and she's back on the scene to promote Catalina, a new magazine for Latinas and an event called "Essence of Latinas":

Known by millions of children and adults as “Maria” on Sesame Street, Sonia Manzano will join Catalina, the only national lifestyle magazine for “the mind, body, and soul of today’s Latina,” for two days of events celebrating Latinas. One event is open to the public, and the other is invite-only.

On May 7, Sonia will join the Catalina book club event at the Houston Latino Book & Family Festival. The Latina star will address a crowd of more than 600 and read from her highly acclaimed children’s book, NO DOGS ALLOWED. The reading, which is open to the public and includes an introduction by Cathy Areu, Catalina’s publisher and the author of the new book Latino Wisdom, will be held at 2:30 p.m. in the Auditorium of the Houston Community College Central.
