The move was especially difficult for her eldest son, whose ability to adapt to those huge changes (home, school, language, friends, leaving family) was complicated by his special needs and lack of adequate coping skills.Working through ways to help her son deal with what he was describing as his "bad thoughts" (confusion, making mistakes ...), Clara began transforming them into cute monsters.Thus, those intrusive thoughts and feelings that he could not properly understand or express were no longer abstract entities. They were fairy tale characters to which he could relate and which he could understand.In real life dealing with those intrusive thoughts was difficult, but in the fantasy world, those thoughts-turned-monsters could be overcome.The result has been lots of funny stories full of humor that we share with the world to entertain and amuse children, and even a few adults.And since this project was such a personal journey, there was no better way to bring it to life than having her very talented sister Soledad illustrating all her stories.
