Lorena Ochoa had everyone smiling at Main Library, but we think her “chaparritos” had the biggest smiles of all! It was such a treat seeing the kids meet someone they admire so much. Lorena made time for her youngest fans, shared plenty of laughs, and gave them memories they'll be talking about for a long time. ¡Muchísimas gracias, Lorena! We loved having you in McAllen and seeing how much your visit meant to the families who came out. Thank you to H-E-B, presenting sponsor of the South Texas International Book Festival! #STIBF #HEBHelpingHere
