Discover inclusive stories and illustration services
Welcome to the official platform of José Manuel Lara Rodríguez, where children’s literature meets accessibility and creativity. Here you can discover my most prominent works, such as ‘El viaje de Globo Rojo’ and ‘ABCedario del Hogar,’ both made in accessible formats like easy reading, sign language, pictograms, and audiobooks. As a freelance writer and illustrator, I specialize in creating educational content that promotes inclusion. My goal is to reach all children, regardless of their needs. I also organize storytelling sessions and educational workshops designed to be enjoyed by all. Join me on this journey to make children’s literature an inclusive and enriching space. In this section, you will also find reflections and valuable resources on accessible children’s literature, always thinking about diversity.
At José Manuel Lara Rodríguez, every word and every drawing is an invitation to dream and learn without barriers. In addition to my publications, I am dedicated to offering my illustration and writing services to educational institutions, libraries, and festivals. My experience in the field of children’s literature and accessibility allows me to create unique projects that capture the imagination of the little ones. Working with publishers is an essential part of my mission, so I am always looking for new collaborations. If you are an agent or an editor interested in taking accessible literature to a new level, here you will find a space to join forces. Immerse yourself in the world of childhood without limits, where every story is a tool for inclusion and learning. I hope you enjoy exploring this universe as much as I enjoy creating each story.
💛 I illustrate children’s stories that move, and with an inclusive perspective. Because all children deserve to enjoy stories.
💛 I help make every story accessible to all children by adapting the language, format, and way of telling it.
💛 My workshops are designed for all children to participate and enjoy, regardless of their abilities. I also offer proposals for families, teachers, and education professionals.
