At the age of 12, she read her first science fiction book and thus discovered
the magical world of adults, where dreams and creativity lead people
to think about all the possibilities they have in this wonderful universe,
where good and evil mix continuously.
The magical world of children and science fiction together leads to
adventure for all those who love to dream. But not everything for
Cambraia is summed up in science fiction.
As the daughter and grand daughter of one of the many coffee growers
in Brazil, she decided to write a children's book about the adventures
and misfortunes of coffee around the world, and adults curious about
the indispensable drink in their daily lives will find it enjoyable also.
Our hero here, the Coffee, will take readers on a journey through the
ages and around the world.
