YARRAN, Stories from Australia: Children Book

The mini volume YARRAN mirrors three different expressions of feelings: the love for animals, the cheerfulness that can be found in nature, and the excitement of reading books.

Yarran’s treasures spring from real images captured from my surrounding. The little puppy’s character reflects my little actress Pepina, a puppy that spreads joy and love everywhere she goes. The narrative voice is the little child that still haunts me sometimes through my inner world. Real are other characters too, such as the kookaburras, my lively neighbors early in the mornings.

Children will experience the joy and magic of a natural lively garden, like Yarran does, in The Playful Garden. The magic could spring from everywhere. The Magic Book reflects images from a unique place on earth called Australia. Lorries, koalas, and kangaroos are some of the native and narrative characters.

If the melody of words and the vivacity of images would bring a smile and illuminate a child’s beautiful face, I would consider myself a lucky writer.
