Margarita tells us, "The sweetest hours of my life have been the ones I spent taking care of my three children: Noel, Luis, and Maria. My greatest pleasure was always having them clean and happy, and their greatest joy for them was to listen to my stories every night, so every day my imagination had to create a new story to please him."

This book collects some of the stories that the author was able to write down at night--after her children fell asleep--with the intention that these children's stories could be read to other children at bedtime.
