Lissette Perry

I need to remind us all that the present moment is to be treasured and that love is a gift from God. We are all one—made in the image of God—and we need to tolerate, forgive and love one another.

Born (1969) in Brooklyn New York, to native Puerto Rican parents. Wife, Mother to 4 Beautiful Daughters and recently Grandmother to her first grandchild. Lissette has a calling to be an Abuela for the world’s children and shares her love of her Puerto Rican heritage by writing the Flora Children’s Books.

Lissette received all the inspiration for the Flora series of books from the Holy Spirit in 2004. This was in response to her prayers, asking God what can be done about all the monstrosities inflicted on children worldwide for all time. This series of books is intended to convey a message of love, joy, and peace which is needed for us all—now more than ever—as we share this one planet.

A sweet illustrated bilingual book

February 16, 2021

Flora is a book about love and peace. It has a story within the story about a couple of little frogs that is engaging, and I think children will enjoy it, and the book overall. The illustrations are very nice. It your child is learning English, or learning Spanish, it seems like it would be interesting to read the story both ways. Flip the book upside down and it's the same book going the other way. A wonderful book to read to little ones. It's entertaining and teaches values. Teaching two languages is a bonus.

Excellent Read

December 11, 2020

Loved reading this book! My 10 year old son and I both enjoyed reading it together. The story about Flora is really beautiful, and the illustrations to go along with the story are beautiful as well. My son loved the English and Spanish option, and we had fun looking up new words in the glossary. Highly recommend this book and I hope we have more stories about Flora in the future. We could all use a Flora in our lives.

Love, the most important feeling!

Beautiful heartfelt book with outstanding illustrations. The message within is one every child needs to hear and not just once, but over and over again. The book can be flipped over and read in Spanish which makes it extra special. This book would make a great stocking stuffer or a wonderful edition to a church or school library.

A Beautiful Book for Young Readers

I bought this book for my daughter who is 8 years old. She absolutely loved it. She loved Flora and she enjoyed that I was able to flip it over and read it to her in Spanish. The illustrations are beautiful and so detailed. I recommend this for any child who enjoys reading ♥️

Cultura, idiomas y espiritualidad en un libro para niños

November 23, 2020

Flora es un libro bilingüe (español e inglés) con un contenido muy positivo tanto cultural como espiritualmente. La abuela Flora, como toda abuela, tiene mucho que enseñar. Es una abuela muy conectada con Dios, con la naturaleza y con los niños. Fue un placer participar en este proyecto con la autora y traducir a Flora. Es una historia muy recomendada.
