Where dreams take you... It isn't a question but the certainty that prepares us for an extraordinary journey.
A book where illustration and poetry merge, transporting the reader to a world where art accompanies them on every page.An invitation to let our imagination soar as dreams take shape and become a reality.A dreamlike text without a starting point, and which feels as if it has no end; a world of fantasy, which makes its presence felt right from the cover, with its bold, atmospheric title.It's time to dream, and no one can say whether it's just a fantasy, a desire for something to come true, or just things that happen while we are asleep.That's the magic of this book: we'll never know whether she was dreaming about being an ant or if she was one, but, in any case, it happened...A story that symbolizes our goals, challenges, aspirations, and, above all, the fierce determination to achieve our objectives without giving up; overcoming our fears through the magic formula of trusting in ourselves.The artist recreates scenes with unique details that intentionally move us between close-ups and wide-angle views, immersing us in a world of vibrant colors.Gray tones remind us that we are asleep, while deep red brings us back to reality: or was it the other way around?It is a book that allows the reader to discover the character and then be spellbound with them in the worlds of dreams.Donde llevan los sueños... Una obra donde ilustración y poesía se funden para llevar al lector a un mundo donde el arte le acompañará en cada lámina.Una invitación real a desplegar toda nuestra imaginación mientras los sueños van tomando forma y se hacen realidad.Un texto onírico del que se desconoce el principio y del que se siente que no existe final; la fantasía, que hace acto de presencia desde la portada, su título tan abierto, tan vivo...Todo está listo para el sueño, y nadie nos confirma si es tan solo un anhelo, el deseo de hacer algo realidad, o hechos que se suceden mientras dormimos.Una lectura que simboliza nuestras metas, los retos, las ilusiones y, sobre todo, esa férrea voluntad de conseguir nuestros objetivos sin dejar paso a la rendición; venciendo los miedos mientras vamos acompañados de la mágica fórmula que representa confiar en nosotros mismos.Un álbum que deja que sea el lector quien descubra al personaje para, después, perderse con él por los mundos de la ensoñación.Author Biography
