Martha Rodriguez
Martha Rodriguez is the author of the children's books A Reel Cool Summer, Smell My Feet! 10 Seriously Silly and Sweet Short Stories for Squirts, and What About Barnaby? She is also the owner of Read To Me Publishing, LLC.
Martha was born in Havana, Cuba and immigrated to the United States with her family at the age of three. She is a wife and the mother to three awesome kids. Like most moms, she has had many years of experience answering the question, “We’re bored, what can we do?” One answer to that question brought about the story behind A Reel Cool Summer.
Smell My Feet! is a collection of short stories, for children ages 7-10, which she original published on her blog. An angel, a hero and a cute dog named Charlie are some of the characters you'll meet. Don't be surprised if you recognize yourself, a crazy uncle, or a friend in one of them.
What About Barnaby? is the first book in the Gumshoe Crew Mystery Series and Martha's first middle-grade fiction. When Barnaby Q. Percival's disappearance comes to light, two friends, Zeke and Scotty, team up to find him. Will they be able to decipher the mystery of the missing mutt on their own? Come along as old and new friends (furry and not) work together to reunite Barnaby with his best friend, Mr. Jensen!
Martha is currently working on a second picturebook featuring the three wacky siblings from A Reel Cool Summer as well as the second book in the Gumshoe Crew Mystery Series.

A Reel Cool Summer
Children's, Picture book
It’s the hottest, most boring day of summer vacation! It’s so hot and boring, it feels like you’re in a mall that’s made of really, really hot lava! Confused? That’s okay. It will all make sense once you meet Joey, Danny and Jacqui.
Will the three siblings find a way to cool down? Can they turn this boring day around? Will aliens take over the world? Wait… what?
A Reel Cool Summer has all the ingredients for a great movie adventure: a pirate, a princess, a prize and a pig (well, two pigs… well, actually two guinea pigs)!
