Author and creator Lonnie Dai Zovi started writing when her own child was in  her pre-school Spanish class and she had to make up her own songs, games, stories and more to teach effectively. Since the children and other teachers loved her curriculum so much, she decided to hire artists and professional musicians and market it. Vibrante Press had begun. 

Throughout her over 30 years of on going teaching of ESL, Spanish and Bilingual classes in elementary, middle school, high school and college, Lonnie continues to find educational voids to fill, more music, pictures, stories, games and more great materials to create for her classroom and yours. 

Spanish – Our selection of materials include Lonnie’s great music for the classroom: ,Cantos, Ritmos y Rimas, Mariachi y Más, Cantos Calientes, Spanish ¡Alive!, Español Alegre, Gira Musical, and of course her NEW and REVOLUTIONARY Musical Echoing for Learning Spanish.
