Meet Julie Ruiz Rotte
I am a mom and children’s book author who began writing stories to help my daughter develop a positive mindset. Working alongside students as a special education paraprofessional showed me the incredible impact that encouragement can have on a child’s life. I now write stories that help kids build confidence and see the bright side of everyday challenges. When I am not writing, I am enjoying spending time with my family and finding inspiration in everyday moments with my children.
Meet María Perera
María Perera was born in Gijón, a small seaside town in northern Spain. When she was very young, she found out that there were few things in life that she enjoyed as much as listening to The Beatles and drawing. She graduated in Art History, and soon after that, she studied Graphic Design.
She has worked as a freelance illustrator for several international publishers, magazines, and advertising agencies, and loves to work on portraits and children's books. She is very inspired by 60's and 70's music, literature, and cinema, and loves to spend time with her family and friends. She still listens to The Beatles and feels fortunate to be able to do what she loves the most for a living, illustration.
What Sets Us Apart
Big Words for Little Minds
I want my book to be a tool that introduces children to the big words pessimism and optimism and teaches them what they mean long before they might learn them later in life.
Where Meaningful Conversations Begin
I want my book to start meaningful conversations about negative and positive feelings and how to navigate them.
A Book for Every Age in the Room
I want parents to enjoy reading the book just as much as children enjoy listening to it or reading it themselves.
