Jorge (or Jorge Antonio Tello Aliaga for short) is a writer and illustrator born and raised in Lima, Peru. He has worked with top global companies like Apple, Adobe, Oracle, and Cisco, bringing his expertise to design award-winning educational children’s software and managing design teams at the world’s largest graphic software company. Jorge enjoys writing, drawing, composing, programming, cooking Peruvian food, and speaking English (with a cool accent!). He is also the proud recipient of a Book of the Year award for his beloved Pookie and Tushka series. Since childhood, Jorge dreamed of publishing children's books. His ambitions also include designing toys, creating a sci-fi/fantasy magazine, making cartoons, producing movies, building a theme park, becoming president of Peru, and, if time permits, achieving world peace. His name, the Spanish form of George, is pronounced "HOR-heh." About Pookie and Tushka Pookie was born at the end of 1995 when a friend of the author needed a character for a college assignment. Tushka was born in 1997 when the author first conceived the idea to write a children’s book. This book is all about being a kid, feeling alone in the world, longing for a good friend, and ultimately finding one. About The Blobbies The first Blobbie was born in early 1996 as a doodle on paper. As the years went by, the Blobbies became more and more defined until their distinct personalities appeared. The Blobbies’ personality chart was created after intensive research on personality type systems, the psychological significance of colors and the esoteric meaning of each rainbow color. This book is all about feeling proud of one’s self and using one’s unique abilities to learn new things and enjoy life.
