GREAT BAY:--- Author Loekie Morales presented her children’s book Mina Marina on Wednesday at the Jose Marti Cultural Center in Havana, Cuba.
The author of a number of children’s books said that she also “presented Overseas Bloodline for adults” earlier this week. The biographical title appears in Dutch as Bloedlijn overzee.
Morales could choose no better time to present her books in Cuba. The 21st annual Cuba International Book Fair (Feb 9 – 19) is taking place as one of the country’s largest cultural events. According to one Associated Press article, the “exuberant popular fair” is known to draw millions of visitors from Cuba and abroad.
Morales is a program manager with the St. Maarten government.
