Bilingual and bicultural books to foster the love of reading to children of all communities.
Libros bilingues y biculturales para fomentar el amor por la lectura para niños de todas las comunidades.
David Flores,
Owner / Author
As an educator and a father, David understood the need for more bilingual and bicultural books. Brownie Books was created once David and his wife Kaylyn became parents. Brownie Books comes from David's coaching nickname "Coach Brownie." He named himself Coach Brownie to easily break the ice with the little ones he coached. Who doesn't love brownies anyway?!
David grew up in El Salvador and migrated to Texas when he was 13 years old. He is a Southwestern Assemblies of God U. graduate and a Pre-K teacher in Waxahachie, TX. He coaches soccer to children as young as two years old and as old as 18 years old.
David and Kaylyn married in 2012 after meeting in college. They are a bilingual, biracial, and bicultural couple whose dream is to continue to foster the love they have for Texas and El Salvador to their daughters Aspen and Lincoln.

"Mis Chanclas and My Chones embraces biliteracy and the love of a multicultural family!"
"Our students loved having a real author, with fun props and engagement, come visit our elementary. Mr. Flores was funny, patient, and allowed the students to be part of the program. We are very pleased with the decision to invite Mr. Flores in, and we look forward to him coming back with new books and characters."
David Antonio Flores you were by far one of the best authors I have seen visit a school and I’ve been teaching for 22 years. Thank you so much!!!!
