Milimbo's most sucessfull books are definitely Y recuerda (an original wordless version of Little red riding hood), La luna sabe a pescao or Cinderella. Milimbo created and designed installations in Spain, Italy, France and São Paulo and reagurarly spread the passion for fairy tales and its symbolics through workshops for kids and adults.
