Get to know Anastasia Romero, the author of “Home”

Anastasia started writing and illustrating children’s books in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. One day, unable to buy new books because of the strict lockdown, she created a whole story about snails to read to her daughter, and that’s how her first book came to be.

“‘Home’ tells a story about the journey we all call life and the incredible surprises we discover along the way,” she shared.

Anastasia has lived in three different countries: Russia, Spain, and the Philippines. She currently resides with her family in Cebu City, Philippines.

“Home” will be available to the public on April 15, 2023.
