Tatiana
Deriabina
Words that wander and find their way home, through stories for little hearts and essays for restless minds.
The muse himself — always watching, always knowing.
A storyteller with
ink-stained hands
Tatiana Deriabina Shamshurina writes at the intersection of wonder and warmth. Her children’s books invite the youngest readers into worlds where curiosity leads the way — one paw print at a time.
Based in Madrid, she is a regular voice across literary and cultural platforms, and occasionally steps into the radio booth to talk about the books and ideas she loves most.

Previsibles
Somos muy previsibles. No en el sentido aburrido. La verdad es que me gusta saber a qué hora llega, por dónde anda, qué me va a responder y en qué momento del día me va a besar sin decir nada.
