Created by actor, writer, and TV icon Sonia Manzano (beloved by generations as “Maria” on Sesame Street) and inspired by her own childhood, Alma’s Way centers on 6-year-old Alma Rivera, a proud, confident Puerto Rican girl. Alma lives in the Bronx with her family among a diverse group of close-knit friends and community members. Infused with Sonia’s humor and grounded in critical thinking and social-emotional learning, the series will give children the tools to discover the confidence to think for themselves, find their own answers, and recognize and respect the unique perspective of others.
