Eva previously explained that her new book "opens the door for you to talk about a lot of things that when I was a child, we didn't talk about things like this. Because you know, [it was said], 'The kids don't have worries, they're kids.'"

'Desi, Mami, and the Never-Ending Worries' explores "the story of a little girl facing endless scary worries" described as a "deeply relatable story about a subject that all parents can likely connect with: the bedtime struggle."
