Books written and Illustrated by Begoña True
My Magic Land
A magical adventure full of love fun and tenderness.
From dancing plants and animals, to souring with friends through the
skies upon clouds. From fishing on a bout that brings you the many potentials of your imagination, to the River of Laughter where a mysterious lady plays the piano with the drops of water from
its cascade. And the magical crystal dimensions where anything can be created and where the main character creates an inseparable friend, her cat called "Yes".
For children and adults who have kept their child soul.
How it came to life.
One day I asked myself: what would I create for myself to enjoy life on Earth? I would create my own Paradise, I thought. What
does Paradise look to me?, was my second thought. A beautiful piece of land with rivers, lakes and all sorts of animals, I answered myself. And friends, I also thought, to share
beautiful experiences with. And I made a couple of tiny drawings.
Some time later I wrote down some of the experiences I would like to enjoy, and so, "My magic Land" was coming to life, because many
of the experiences I would like to enjoy are indeed magical, and many others are just about enjoying the true beauty of life.
Then I began creating the illustrations for my book and let my imagination run wild. I saw that there were more stories within them,
though I didn´t write them down. They are there to discover, to take me into a magical journey each time different.
When I look at them I see them coming to life, I hear their jokes, I feel their love; they accompany me during my day and life
becomes magical and fun.
There are to versions of it. One is an A4 horizontal hard cover, that you can buy on Lulu.com
The other is a paperback cover, square format that you can buy on amazon.com.

Love doesn't need words
"Love doesn't need words" is the first of a series about love and
friendship for children. It's a book with no text, for the illustrations are self explanatory and therefor for all ages even for the little ones that don't know how to read yet.
This first title is about a girl and her cat, and how when they first met
each other it was love at first sight.
What a Journey!
This is just my version of creation. I wrote this story after asking myself how did I (and all of humanity) get here. Isn’t this what we all ask ourselves? And then I sat still with a pen and paper in my hands and slowly but fluently this “poem” started pouring through my mind and hands in such a simple and beautiful way that I could feel this amazing journey as I wrote it. Maybe it is just a fantasy, an imaginary story that I wrote but that’s beautiful too, for what is there more beautiful and freeing than imagination. I invite you to take this journey with me. What a journey it has been! From All that Was to All that Is Who am I? You might think. My name is True, My story glistens, My color is gold, So listen…In the beginning there is no end, In every end there is always a beginning, And this story that I will tell, Is my story and yours as well. Before the beginning of time and space, Before the creation of human race, This story starts in a different way...
