Ricky Martin has shown his versatility in music, on Broadway and now as a children’s book author.
The Puerto Rican entertainer will release his first children’s book “Santiago the Dreamer in ‘Land Among the Stars,’” on November 14. This his second book. Martin was named a New York Times bestselling author for his memoir “Me,” released in 2011.
“Santiago the Dreamer” is published by Celebra, a division of the Penguin Group, and will be released simultaneously in English and Spanish. The hard-cover children’s book was illustrated by Patricia Castelao.
The book is about finding strength in a parent’s unconditional love and following your dreams regardless of what they may be. Santiago, the main character of the book, has a dream to perform on stage. But after not landing the lead role in his school play, he loses hope in himself and ends up becoming inspired by his father. With passion and dedication, Santiago gains faith and learns that anything is attainable as long as you just believe.
