This book was written by
my mother Vilma Danke.
Id like to share this story with you:
In 2001 I had just moved to California. My
mom wasn't feeling well and we had to take her to the hospital because of a noise bleeding problem. After this situation, my mom's mood was really bad.
She was worried that she wasn't going to recover from the ailment.
I used the time when she was in the hospital to start designing her book. She had been writing beautiful poems for almost 10 years and she was keeping them in folders and notebooks.
While I was taking Graphic arts classes
in College I was designing my mom's book.
Finally, with my brothers' help and a
kindhearted book editor, we were able to make this wonderful book.
At home, we gave the "Sueños del Sur" book to my mom. This great surprise not only gave her happiness, its gave her more desire and determination to write.
