School programs are 30-45 minutes and are available for Grades Pre-K and up. Family and adult programs are 45-90 minutes. All programs can be adapted for English-speaking, Spanish speaking and bilingual audiences. 

Sue has been honored by Parents' Choice, Creative Child Magazine and "Canciones de Conciencia - Songs of Conscience for Children". She wrote the 2009 and 2011 Texas Reading Club theme songs. Sue writes a song every year featuring the collaborative summer reading theme.
