I’m excited to share the newest addition to my children’s book series: Pipo el Jibarito Regresa a Casa. 🇵🇷📚

But for me, this project represents much more than publishing another book.

It represents what happens when writing, illustration, graphic design, typography, visual storytelling, and cultural identity come together in one creative project.

As both the writer and designer, I’ve been involved in the entire creative process—from developing the story and characters to creating the illustrations, composing the pages, selecting typography, building promotional materials, and preparing the finished book for digital publication.

Pipo el Jibarito Regresa a Casa follows Pipo as he returns to Puerto Rico and reconnects with the family, traditions, memories, and places that shaped him. At its heart, it is a story about growing up without forgetting where you came from.

Projects like this have also allowed me to expand my skills beyond traditional graphic design into:

• Illustration & visual storytelling
• Photoshop and digital image composition
• Typography and page layout
• Character and brand development
• Bilingual content design
• Marketing and promotional design
• Independent publishing and production
• Creative direction from concept to finished product

I’m especially proud that I’ve been able to combine technical design skills with storytelling to build something original from the ground up.

As I continue developing my portfolio and the worlds around my characters, I’m interested in connecting with designers, creative directors, publishers, employers, collaborators, and potential partners or investors who believe in culturally meaningful storytelling and original intellectual property.

Sometimes a children’s book isn’t just a book.

It’s writing.
It’s design.
It’s branding.
It’s problem-solving.
It’s entrepreneurship.
And most importantly, it’s a story worth telling.

Pipo el Jibarito Regresa a Casa — now available on Kindle.

Junior el Coquí recorre El Yunque, Aguada y el Viejo San Juan en una serie de libros infantiles

Junior el Coquí y sus amigos recorren El Yunque, Aguada y el Viejo San Juan en una serie de libros infantiles creada por Mariano Cortes. Las historias combinan aventuras, ilustraciones, vocabulario en inglés y español y datos sobre la naturaleza, las tradiciones y la historia de Puerto Rico.

El proyecto nació como una serie de videojuegos móviles y luego evolucionó hacia los libros, con la intención de acercar a los niños de la Isla y la diáspora a distintos aspectos de la cultura puertorriqueña.

What did childhood look like before Wi-Fi, smartphones, tablets, and video games? 📵🌿.

http://amazon.com/dp/B0HDY6NLH7

For Pipo, it looked like bare feet in the morning grass, mangoes picked from a tree, coffee and crackers with Abuela, homemade fishing poles, animals in the yard, rivers to explore, and cucubanos lighting up the night. ✨🇵🇷

📖 Pipo, el Jibarito de Aguada takes children back to a simpler time in Puerto Rico—when you didn’t need a screen to find an adventure. Sometimes all you needed was a little imagination and the world outside your door.

Inspired by real childhood memories, Pipo’s story celebrates Puerto Rican culture, family, nature, creativity, and the beauty of appreciating the simple things.

And perhaps that’s what makes Pipo especially meaningful in today’s digital age.

Our children may grow up with technology at their fingertips—but through books, we can still show them a childhood when mango trees were playgrounds, rivers were adventures, grandparents were storytellers, and the stars were the entertainment. ❤️

🇵🇷 Same roots. New generations. Stories worth remembering.

Before childhood went online… what did it feel like? 📬📷❄️

We looked out the window during long trips.
We wrote letters and waited patiently for replies.
We took photographs without knowing how they would turn out.
We explored new places without seeing everything online first.

And sometimes, the smallest experience—like touching snow for the very first time—became a memory that lasted forever.

In Pipo el Jibarito llega a Nueva York, Pipo leaves the warmth of Puerto Rico and enters the exciting new world of 1980s New York.

No smartphones.
No social media.
Just family, imagination, discovery—and a childhood lived in the moment. ❤️

🗽 From Puerto Rico to New York
❄️ From sunshine to his first snowfall
📖 A story connecting today’s children with the memories of another generation

What is something you miss about growing up before everything went online?
