About the Author
 
"When I was 10 years old I wrote a “book” called Between the moon and the sun, two worlds (Entre la luna y el sol, dos mundos) — poems and prose about the night sky and its wonders. It talked about the passage of time and the natural rhythms that govern life on Earth. I was and I am in awe of everything we can see in the sky, our very own, magnificent window to the universe. 
 
Fast forward two decades and here I am, presenting Glow, my first published book.
 
Glow aims to bring children and their families closer to the celestial objects we can see with the naked eye. You only need to step outside during a clear night!
