Illuminating a Living World

Once again Caribay joins forces with acclaimed author Aida Salazar on When Sun Rises—the latest title in the poetic “My Living World” board book series from Penguin Random House.

Rooted in Mexican Indigenous knowledge, the book gently guides young readers through the cycles of the seasons and the profound interconnectedness between humans and nature. Caribay’s vibrant, mystical artwork beautifully mirrors the lyrical text, radiating warmth, symbolism, and wonder.

Her illustrations don’t just accompany the narrative—they elevate it, offering a rich visual experience that nurtures a child’s sense of awe, connection, and cultural appreciation.
