In her words

"I am a Filipino entrepreneur based in Barcelona, Spain, but my heart will always carry the memories of my childhood in the Philippines."

"Lucky Lyn-Lyn is a collection of real adventures inspired by my early years filled with curiosity, friendship, family, faith, and lessons that helped shape who I am today."

"Through these stories, I hope to inspire young readers to be kind, brave, and confident, and to discover that even the simplest moments can become the most beautiful adventures."

From the back of every book.

Every story is true

The five pesos, the paper bags, the Christmas coin, the question she asked her teacher about her little sister — all of it happened, to her.

Written in Barcelona

Ten years in Spain, and a childhood in the Philippines that refused to fade. Both languages, both homes.

Twenty books planned

Five are out. The Cow Parade and The Christmas Plan are already named in print, and many more are on the way.

The illustrator

Dan Negrut

Every page of every Lucky Lyn-Lyn book is his — full colour, edge to edge, with the same two street dogs and one orange cat turning up wherever they can.

The publisher

Alaya Books

Alaya publishes picture books for children who don't often see themselves on the page. Lucky Lyn-Lyn is the first series — and the reason the publisher exists.
