Puppeteer

Carolina knows exactly what she wants: to be a puppeteer.

“A puppeteer?” her mother says. “Wouldn’t you prefer a more respectable profession?”

Sometimes, what daughters and mothers think doesn't align. Titiritera (Puppeteer) is the new story by the duo Sandra Araguás and Vicky de Sus: a story about mothers and daughters that breaks down stereotypes, for those who know what they want, for dreamers, for those who don't conform.

An illustrated story that highlights artistic and artisanal professions and offers an honest reflection for families: what makes our children happy, and what expectations do we parents create around them?

And you, would you want to be a puppeteer?

A story to share with family

Vicky de Sus's illustrations provide realism and warmth at the same time: tenderness and color in that mother-daughter relationship that could be found in any home. A children's book for ages 4 and up that hooks from the first page and invites conversation after reading.
