The Melody of Thespis is a childrens book concept I created targeting aspiring creatives and dancers. It follows the tale of a young girl named Isabella who wakes up in a strange world called Thespis which introduces her to the magic of theatre and performing. 

 

Although her quest was simply to travel to Spotlight City and wish to be returned home, she finds a new dream along the way with the help of her new companions; to pursue her dream to be on the stage.

Camellia

Camellia's life was simple and quiet within the walls of her tower. Although she passed time with her pottery, she wanted more in life. Her heart yearned for the world beyond. But her mother, Dona Silva, held the keys to her cage.​Everything changed when an unexpected visitor, later revealed to be her sister, stumbled upon her tower on their way to the Lima River. As Camellia embraced this newfound freedom, she discovered her connection to the mystical Heart of Viana, one half of which she carried. Its power gave her the courage to resist her mother’s control, reunite with her long-lost sister, and uncover the truth about her past—finally finding a place to call home.

Olivia loved two things, her family and her art. But the ocean? No way! It was big, deep, and full of scary sea creatures. Her dad, a true ocean explorer, tried to show her its beauty, but she always stayed on shore… until one brave morning when her dad extended his hand to walk with Olivia into the unknown. Hesitantly, she agrees and is welcomed into the wonderous world of a thriving coral reef. This experience inspires her creatively, bringing her closer to the sea and to her family.
