About the author
I am Teresa Jaldón, an Andalusian artist, flamenco teacher, and creator of stories and theater-dance for children. I have participated in festivals and workshops in several countries, with notable experiences at the Flamenco Biennial and street parades in Spain, such as the Festival de Flamenco en Tarragona 2024.
Recently, I’ve ventured into illustration, being self-taught and exploring techniques such as watercolor, crayons, and ink. My style is naïve, deeply connected to the essence of the characters.
I have a passion for wordless books, where a single image can tell an entire story. Each illustration and story I create is a process of enjoyment and dedication.
