Catalan:Caribbean Connections

I have begun work --- as both author and illustrator --- on three books that explore the historical and cultural connections between Catalunya and Puerto Rico through the lives of individuals shaped by the society of their time.  The reading age for the books: 4-8.  The books will betrilingual, written in Catalan, Spanish and English.  My research began in Puerto Rico and will continue over the next few months in Catalunya.  The books are titled:
- Pilar and the Waters of Liberty
- Don Bonocio Llenza Feliú: From Barceloneta to Barceloneta 
- Bija: The Architect of Memory
