Alma\u2019s Way<\/i> is coming to PBS. The network has ordered a new animated series from Sonia Manzano and Fred Rogers Productions.

PBS revealed more about the new series in a press release. Check that out below.<\/p>\n

PBS KIDS today announced ALMA\u2019S WAY<\/i>, a new animated series from Fred Rogers Productions. The series is created by actor and writer, Sonia Manzano, who positively impacted the lives of generations as \u201cMaria\u201d on Sesame Street<\/em>, breaking new ground as one of the first Latino characters on national television, for which she received an Emmy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2016. ALMA\u2019S WAY<\/i> gives children ages 4-6 the power to find their own answers to their problems, express what they think and feel, and recognize and respect the unique perspective of others. It is slated to debut nationwide on PBS stations, the PBS KIDS 24\/7 channel, and PBS KIDS digital platforms in fall 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am thrilled to return to public television and to work with PBS KIDS and Fred Rogers Productions on this project inspired by my own childhood,\u201d said Sonia Manzano. \u201cAlma\u2019s way is to think things through, and I hope by animating the thought process, kids will be inspired and excited about what goes on in their own minds. I want them to know we all have the power to think regardless of who we are.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSonia has been an important part of the PBS KIDS family for decades and we are so excited to be working with her on ALMA\u2019S WAY<\/i>,\u201d said Linda Simensky, Head of PBS KIDS Content.<\/p>\n

\u201cSonia is naturally funny and perceptive, and she has created in Alma a heroine who is similarly able to confront challenges with humor and thoughtful intention. As kids join Alma, her family, and friends on their adventures, we hope they\u2019ll also see themselves reflected in these characters and learn new things about one of the many beautifully diverse communities that exists across the country.\u201d<\/p>\n

The engaging modern-day series stars 6-year-old Alma Rivera, a proud, confident Puerto Rican girl, who lives in the Bronx with her parents and younger brother, Junior, as well as a diverse group of close-knit and loving friends, family, and community members. In each 11-minute story, Alma speaks directly to young viewers, sharing her observations and feelings, working through challenges, and offering them a window into her everyday life.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can\u2019t wait for kids to meet Alma. She\u2019s an optimistic and confident Puerto Rican girl who models for viewers how to think their way through any dilemma,\u201d said Ellen Doherty, Chief Creative Officer, Fred Rogers Productions. \u201cThe show is funny, warm, and relatable. We love how it showcases the diversity of New York City, too, and authentically reflects the cultures of all the characters.\u201d<\/p>\n

In every episode, ALMA\u2019S WAY<\/i> aims to model self-awareness, responsible decision making, and empathy, encouraging kids to generate and value their own ideas and questions. As she uses \u201cThink-Through\u201d moments to stop, listen, and process in the face of a tough decision, Alma reflects and takes action while demonstrating social<\/a> awareness.<\/p>\n

Currently in production for 40 half-hour episodes, the series will also showcase different aspects of Latino culture through music, food, language, and more. For example, viewers will see Alma help make mofongo, take part in a bomba show, and celebrate Noche Buena.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

What do you think? Will Alma\u2019s Way<\/i> on PBS be watched in your home?<\/p>\n
