About the Author
Rafael A. Osuba (n. 1967) es un artista visual, productor cultural y cuentacuentos. Le apasiona compartir recuerdos e historias de su querido Puerto Rico. Creció en el Barrio La Mineral en Mayagüez, Puerto Rico, y a menudo encuentra inspiración para sus relatos en esas entrañables experiencias de la niñez en Borikén.Osuba cree que es esencial enseñar a los niños el valor de preservar la cultura y de destacar la belleza y positividad diaria que nos rodea. Aboga firmemente por que los niños se vean representados en los libros que leen, sin importar su origen cultural, étnico o socioeconómico. Para él, los libros infantiles bilingües y biculturales son cruciales; ayudan a los niños a comprender su propia cultura y sus orígenes ancestrales, vivan en su país natal o en el extranjero.Osuba tiene tres hijos adultos: Raffi, Gabbi y Leilani. Vive en la ciudad de Raleigh, Carolina del Norte, con su esposa, mejor amiga y musa, Michelle.Rafael A. Osuba (b. 1967) is a visual artist, cultural producer, and storyteller.
