Lumi's Valentine's Day

Beschreibung

¿ By Best-Selling & Award-Winning Author L.S. Franco ¿ This Valentine's Day, Lumi, the penguin, and his friends have a heart full of love and flippers full of surprises! Each one finds their own special way to share kindness, proving that love doesn't always look the same-it's as unique as they are. A cozy, inclusive tale celebrating friendship, differences, and the little things that make us wonderfully one-of-a-kind. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Meet Lumi - a penguin with a Special Spark! ¿¿ Lumi was created to help neurodivergent children feel seen, valued, and understood - while gently encouraging awareness and acceptance in the world around them. More than just a story, Lumi is a movement - one that shows kids (and grown-ups) that our differences are not just okay... they're something to celebrate. ¿ This heartwarming tale follows Lumi, a penguin who doesn't quite fit in like the others - and that's exactly what makes him special. As young readers journey alongside him, they're invited to embrace neurodivergence with love, patience, and understanding. ¿ Thoughtfully crafted for all children, Lumi's pages are filled with vibrant yet calming illustrations - avoiding overstimulation and creating a sensory-friendly experience for those who need it most. The storytelling is simple, engaging, and comforting - a safe space to explore themes of belonging, perseverance, and kindness. Whether shared in classrooms, libraries, or cozy reading nooks, Lumi isn't just a book series - it's a step toward a more inclusive, compassionate world. ¿

She is also a Friends of Worldcon member, supporting the global sci-fi and fantasy community through its most iconic convention.As a Chief of Strategy, Franco brings sharp structural thinking and visionary planning to her storytelling-crafting intricate plots, complex systems of magic and governance, and expansive multiverse timelines that unfold with purpose and precision.Franco is known for crafting cinematic, character-driven fantasy set in richly layered multiverses, where magic isn't just power-it's system, consequence, and philosophy. Her storytelling blends fast-paced, emotionally raw scenes with a strategic, world-spanning structure that challenges the mind and stirs the soul. Often described as systemic fantasy, her work tackles spiritual warfare, societal collapse, and moral reckoning, all while anchoring the reader in deeply human (and often heartbreaking) character arcs. Her signature style weaves together visual spectacle, intellectual depth, and emotional weight-creating stories that don't just entertain, but transform.Born in Niterói, Brazil, she was raised on classic tales, world folklore, and mythology. Her decades as a tabletop RPG game master refined her instinct for improvisation, immersive worldbuilding, and multi-perspective narratives. Her love for psychotherapy and constant study of human behavior breathe emotional depth and psychological realism into her characters.She is also the author of the Lumi Hops children's collection. Lumi was created to help neurodivergent children feel represented and understood while fostering awareness and acceptance in the world around them. More than just a story, Lumi is a movement-one that teaches kids (and adults) that differences aren't just okay, they're something to celebrate.Now based in the United States, Franco writes with a purpose: to craft stories that linger. Written for her son but meant for all readers, she believes imagination isn't an escape-it's a compass. One that can light the way through even the darkest paths.
