Born in the hinterland of Bahia (Brazil), in the village of Serrote, since she was very little she dreamed of having books and her biggest dream was to create a library for her and for other children in her community.
At age 12, with the help of her father, Maria Clara founded her Library, small in size but immense in love and nobility.
Nowadays Maria Clara dreams of being able to reform and enlarge her dream, or rather saying: her Library.
Those who wish to help her with books, building material or with other kind of material, can contact her through her page.
