Maria Anna Machado
Maria was born in Sao Paulo, Brazil in 1931. Ever since she was a child, she always found a pencil, handy. She was very passionate about drawing and writing and still is. Doing painting was her main activity but the writing was always present. Creativity and imagination were the reasons behind this book, thinking about her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She has also published two books in Portuguese: Atlantis: Atol de Formigas, 2006 and 0 Rei das Orquideas, 2012. Both the books can be found on Amazon.
