It was both a pleasure and an honor getting a chance to talk to Victor Bizar Gómez about his picture book from late last year We Sing from the Heart, written by Mia Wenjen. This powerful book is stunning brought to life by Gómez's illustrations, and I'm so glad I get a chance to share the inner workings of this book with you all today!

Down to the Last Detail: HAICUBA/HAIKUBA
I absolutely love love love how the copyright info is handled on the back endpapers of this book! The back endpapers are a night version of the front, but the lighthouse highlighting the Spanish copyright info is hands-down the best design piece of this book!
