Where did the idea come from…?
One evening, as I was falling asleep, I reflected on the familiar nursery rhyme Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. Having taught it for years as a preschool teacher, I began to wonder what each line truly meant. I imagined what that little star might be like if it came to Earth to experience life alongside us.
As I pictured its light, curiosity, and wonder, the story of Lucerito-which means little light in Spanish-was born. It was also inspired by my dad's love of astronomy, the universe, the stars, and the planets.
