Captain Mama series (Bilingual, Spanish-English)
por Graciela Tiscareno-Sato, ilustrado por Linda Lens
Written by a Latina former military aviator, this bilingual children's book series presents the stories in English and Spanish.
(1) Good Night Captain Mama / Buenas Noches Capitán Mamá
On his way to his bedroom, Marco notices his mama in an olive-green military flight suit. His curiosity about the colorful patches on her uniform evolves into a sweet, reassuring bedtime conversation between a military mother and her child about why she serves and what she does in the unusual KC-135R aerial refueling airplane. Marco drifts off to sleep with thoughts of his mama in the airplane and the special surprise she gave him stuck to his fleece pajamas.
Marco ve a su mamá con su traje de vuelo militar. Sus preguntas sobre los parches provocan una conversación sobre por qué las mamás sirven en las Fuerzas Armadas y usan uniformes. Incluye recursos educativos y una plantilla de actividad artística.
(2) Captain Mama's Surprise / La Sorpresa de Capitán Mamá
Marco and his sisters, whose mama is a US Air Force aviator, visit the KC-135 aerial refueling tanker on a field trip with Marco's second grade class. The children and their teachers meet the aircrew and the crew chief, tour the airplane to understand its unique parts and learn what each crew member does as they work together onboard this gas station in the sky. Includes a STEM activity for children to learn basic aircraft terms and structure, plus glossaries in Spanish and English of aviation terms in the text.

(3) Taking Flight With Captain Mama / Despegando con Capitán Mamá
Marco and his friends take flight on the KC-135 refueling tanker! They see Captain Mama and her aircrew in action refueling some of the coolest jets in the Air Force, and witness what happens when an emergency suddenly arises in flight. This book includes a glossary of aviation terms plus an activity to make an origami paper airplane of the unique planes seen in the story!
