"Dora the Explorer" Inspired by Elon Student

By kmaraghy

If sophomore Lilli Zinaman looks vaguely familiar, it may be because you have gone on adventures together. Zinaman's uncle was a co-creator and cartoonist for Dora the Explorer, an animated children's television series created in 2000 that is geared towards helping children learn Spanish. The series has inspired books, movies, video games, and a spin-off series, all of it inspired by Zinaman. [div class="alignleft"] [/div] "Dora is based on what I looked like at about two or three years old," Zinaman said. As she flips through pictures of growing up, Zinaman laughs about her "prime Dora years" where photo after photo features Dora's signature bowl cut.
