Help me publish the book LUNA and the Superpowers of the Heart. This children's book combines fantasy and emotion, teaching that true superpowers are born from the heart.

The book will be printed entirely in color on IOR paper, in a 23x23 format, with a hardcover, over 30 pages, and 20 color illustrations.

The book “Luna and the Superpowers of the Heart” is an enchanting collection of stories that combine fantasy, emotion, and universal values, centered on the relationship between Luna, a magical butterfly, and her son, the Rainbow Baby. Each episode presents a new lesson – Friendship, Courage, Empathy, Gratitude, Creativity, Patience, Hope, and Trust – that transforms abstract concepts into sensitive and visual experiences, accessible to the child's imagination. It is a luminous and inspiring work that teaches that true superpowers are born from the heart.

About the author

Hello, I'm Carolina Galo Menegaz, a fashion designer, mother of Vicente, and now, a writer.

My first children's book is called "Luna and the Superpowers of the Heart".

I wrote it during a very difficult time in my life—while living in a shelter for women victims of domestic violence, where I still reside. It was here, amidst the silence and pain, that I found in words a way to breathe, to heal, and to continue believing.

I wrote this book for my 4-year-old son, Vicente. I wanted to show him that, even on the darkest days, there is a light that lives within us—and that true superpowers are born from the heart.

Today, I want to share this story with other children and families. Because I believe that talking about feelings is an act of courage—and that empathy is the most beautiful power we can teach.

With your support, I want to transform this dream into a physical book, colorful and full of emotion.

Every contribution is a wing that helps Luna fly and carry this message of love and overcoming challenges to the world.
