Jorge Ramos presents his first fictional work entitled 'I'm Just Like My Mom. I'm Just Like My Dad,' where he sums up the early days with his children and his last days with his father.

"Even though I've always resisted writing fiction, this book is based on my experience as a father," said the journalist and Noticiero Univisión (Univisión News) anchorperson.

The book tells the story of two kids that show their similarities with their parents and grandparents until they discover that they can see their ancestors reflected in their own faces. As such, they'll never be alone.

"What I wanted from the start was to show with words and pictures the process of self-discovery by which a boy and a girl get in touch with how much they have in common with their parents... and this goes beyond biological and body features," Ramos said.

'I'm Just Like My Mom. I'm Just Like My Dad' will be available in bookstores July 29.
