Welcome! ~ ¡Bienvenidos!
May 2013
Dear friends, Since I've been presenting How Far Do You Love Me? to children and adults , I've been amazed at the reaching power of this title. Conceived to be perfect for parents and their young children, I find that older children relish in guessing what country and continent the different illustrations are set in. The book elicits tears in some young parents, and it seems to be the perfect gift for newlyweds.
Looking for a gift from the wide array of books I've worked on through the years? Here is a sampling:
Arrorró mi niño for the mother to be and the littlest angels! Jay and Ben for children 3-6, specially if they like interacting books! The Storyteller’s Candle for children ages 7-9, specially if they are into history! Salsa Stories for your children ages 9-11, specially if they like to learn about other peoples' traditions and/or cook! Alicia Afterimage for teens 14-16 and/or those who’ve been touched by the death of a loved one. 
For more information on my work watch the WETA interviews where I talk about Alicia Afterimage and The Storyteller's Candle among other subjects. I wish you all a happy holiday season! Saludos, Lulu |
