About the Author

Raynelda grew up in the Dominican Republic on a healthy diet of romance novels, comic strips, Gabriel Garcia Marquez's books, and other literature. She spends her free time thinking about (and drafting) books to write. As a librarian, her work with children inspired her to create picture books that highlight the accomplishments of Hispanic women in history. She hopes to inspire young readers to follow their passions and never take no for an answer. This is her fourth children's book.

María is a passionate graphic designer who grew up between Colombia and Spain. Her extreme curiosity has led her to live in 4 different countries, an experience that has enriched her life as well as her creative process, and has made her an eternal apprentice.
