When Ana’s was born, everything was dark. She could feel the warmth of her mother as she held her in her arms, the smell of her father’s newly washed shirt, and far away, she could hear the twittering of the birds as they slowly woke up to spring. But apart from that, everything else was darkness..
Ana’s spends her days cooking in an old house with her grandma. Although she can’t see, Ana’s has the gift of being able to feel our very deepest emotions and to bring them to life with her magical mixtures of cinnamon and saffron.

If we set our minds to it, we can all turn what we perceive as weaknesses into strengths.
Ganador en los International Latino Book Awards de 2013. Cierra los ojos e inspira. Descubre el universo de Ana, lleno de aromas y fragancias, donde no caben imposibles.
Cuando Ana nació, todo estaba a oscuras. Podía sentir el calor de su mamá al sostenerla en sus brazos, el perfume de la camisa recién lavada de su papá y, muy a lo lejos, el trinar de los pájaros que despertaban con pereza a la primavera. Pero, por lo demás, todo estaba a oscuras..
Ana pasa las tardes entre ollas y fogones, cocinando en la antigua casa con su abuela. Aunque no puede ver, Ana tiene el don de conocer nuestras más íntimas emociones y de evocarlas con sus mágicas mezclas de canela y azafrán. Pero un día, encontrará una persona que despertará en ella una infinita ternura y abrirá sus sentidos a un mundo totalmente desconocido.
Un precioso cuento sobre cómo todos podemos transformar nuestras debilidades en fortalezas.
