    Bedbug's Big Adventure: The Way of Saint James

    Hi Fraluchi, Thank you for your comment. In the book, Bedbug is not an insect; he is a character. He just wants to go on an adventure and see the world that Pilgrim sees. So to answer your question, no, the story is not about bedbugs; it is about the Camino. I tried to tell the story from the...

    First ever children's book written about the Camino

    Thank you for your comment. It's so nice to see people warming to the concept of Bedbug as the happy friendly little character that I tried to create. There are lots of other animals that are not so cuddly, that have been accepted as lovable characters, so why not Bedbug. As I mentioned in an...

    First ever children's book written about the Camino

    Thank you for your comment. I had a lot of fun with the idea of Bedbug as the main character. And he is just that, a character. He is not an insect in the story, he is a happy friendly little guy who wants to go on a journey. I sometimes get the reaction of "Arggggg" at the mention of Bedbug's...

    First ever children's book written about the Camino
