JoTita Gonçalves

Now, after all these years, even though I haven’t stopped writing, I started to also write books for children. I’ve done it all this time, from writing, to illustration and publishing – I’m quite pleased and proud of myself.

So, I’ve created a village that carries my name “JoTita’s Village” where after a big invasion, many children where left behind without any support or teens or adults to look after them. JoTita and his husband to-be Eric, heard the news on the radio as they were going to get married and took an action – they’ve decided to lend a helping hand and look for the ones in need, straightaway after the wedding registration. So, after seeing the awful state of the place, they didn’t have many hopes to find many children alive, but thankfully, they were wrong. They looked after every one they could find and decided to adopt them. Their intention was to give them a family, love and safety in a village that would give them all the tools and principles needed to be the best version of themselves, knowing that trust, honesty, kindness and respect where some of the most important survival skills.

So, there are 5 of those books with different titles. These are stories made to help built a strong relationship between parents and kids again, there are even some questions to promote interaction and to allow the child to be attentive.

I have from simple book stories, to collections of stories and also an activities book. On the Collection 1 Hardcover (ONLY) there are over 20 pages of activities as bonus.  👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽
