Alisa in Washerland by Marian Flores


"Flores has created a feisty, fun little heroine and a world that's chock-full of clever wonders. The book does what the best stories do; makes you see ordinary things in a way you never had before."-Ellen Tanner MarshNew York Times three-time best-selling author



Marian Flores has spent her life living in small Connecticut towns. She is married and has a son and an elderly cat. As an artistic child she won many art awards. She graduated from Paier College of Art and later Central Connecticut State University, where she was inspired to write this book. Currently, she is an art teacher at a private special needs school. She greatly enjoys her students who are children on the autism spectrum with multiple disabilities.

Alisa in Washerland is a contemporary twist and play on words with a classic book, Alice in Wonderland, inspired by the author's dislike for washing dishes as a child and her niece's disdain for putting dishes into the dishwasher. When Marian's sister had a dream that she was living in the dishwasher, she found a way to combine all these things into this whimsical fable.
