Picture storybooks: imagination and play
Cuento de Luz SL Juego de niños (Child's Play)
Book SynopsisA poignant story about how children’s play and creativity help children overcome the hardship of moving and changing country and heal one's soul.Danny, Molly and Marcus are three sparkling creative siblings, although each one expresses himself differently. Danny likes music and by singing and playing the guitar he can give voice to his feelings. Mercedes would always be found with a brush in hand, drawing out her emotions. What about Marcus? You see, Marcus is a great writer—he writes down all his thoughts and he can explore his deepest sorrows.One thing that the three very special siblings love is playing together and inventing a thousand different games, but there is something that worries them —soon they will move to a new, safer house in another country. Seeing their parents so sad and watching their house being reduced to boxes breaks their soul. However, they will discover that if they stick together, they will always have a loving home.Una historia conmovedora sobre cómo jugar y ser creativos ayuda a los niños a superar las dificultades de emigrar y a sanar el alma.Damián, Mercedes y Marcos son tres hermanos con una creatividad desbordante, aunque cada uno la expresa de una manera diferente. A Damián le gusta la música, y es que cantar y tocar la guitarra le permite contar lo que siente. A Mercedes siempre la veremos con un pincel en mano, sacando sus emociones pintando. ¿Y Marcos? Veréis, Marcos es un gran escritor y a través de las palabras escribe todos sus pensamientos y así puede conocerse a sí mismo mucho más.Estos tres hermanos tan especiales les encanta jugar juntos e inventarse mil juegos diferentes, pero hay algo que les preocupa… pronto se irán a una nueva casa. Ver a sus padres tan tristes y cómo su casa va quedando vacía les parte el alma, pero descubrirán que si están juntos, siempre van a tener un hogar.Trade Review“A well-crafted, engaging book about resilient childhoods in the face of displacement and conflict.” —Kirkus Reviews

Book SynopsisEverybody tells Ladybug her drawing is not an elephant, but a giant ball of fluff. But… is it? A pleasantly colorful book, printed in stone paper, that invites readers to be imaginative and creative.In school, the forest children had fun discovering the names of distant jungles, jumping around in the schoolyard, learning new songs. Miss Dragonfly asked their students to draw an elephant as homework. Ladybug’s friends Snail, Firefly and other colleagues were the first to show their masterpiece. Ladybug surprised everyone by drawing a giant ball of fluff. There was no sign of the pachyderm! All the forest animals were worried: why would she have drawn something like that? Miss Dragonfly couldn’t believe it, so she warned Ladybug’s parents. It was not like her to do such thing… Who knows! Maybe she needed an ear exam… People in the forest started gossiping… But she could not be any healthier! Soon enough, Ladybug made it clear that perhaps they were wrong prejudging her creativity.Mariquita dibuja un elefante precioso, pero los demás solo ven una pelusa gigante. Un libro lleno de color, impreso en papel de piedra, que invita a los lectores a creer en el poder de la imaginación y a ser creativos.En la escuela, los niños del bosque se divierten descubriendo los nombres de selvas lejanas, saltando en el patio con sus compañeros, aprendiendo nuevas canciones. Doña Libélula, la maestra, pidió a sus alumnos que dibujaran un elefante como deberes. Los amigos de Mariquita, Caracol, Luciérnaga y otros de sus amigos fueron los primeros en enseñar su obra maestra delante de sus compañeros. Mariquita los sorprendió a todos cuando enseñó su dibujo: ¡una bola gigante de pelusa!¡No había ni rastro del paquidermo! Todos los animales del bosque estaban preocupados: ¿por qué habría dibujado algo así? Doña Libélula no daba crédito, así que llamó inmediatamente a los padres de Mariquita y los avisó. No era propio de ella hacer semejante cosa... ¡Quién sabe! Quizás necesitaba que un médico, podría tener algún problemilla de audición. La gente del bosque empezó a chismorrear, ¡pero Mariquita estaba más sana que un roble! Muy pronto, Mariquita dejó en claro que tal vez los demás estaban equivocados al criticar su creatividad.Trade Review“The authors empathize with young readers by weaving a sympathetic, structured story, where imagination and humor are the dominant premise. Combining collage and digital techniques, the result is a magnificent picture book.” —Canal Lector"...Aguirre’s zesty illustrations perk everything up.

mineditionUS Mirror Play
Book SynopsisIn this creative wonder, artist Monte Shin uses shape and symmetry to turn what look like random squiggles into recognizable forms. This uniquely interactive book needs the reader's help to finish the pictures, because they can only be seen using the attached fold-up mirror. Once the mirror is in place, readers can spin the central art on each page to reveal not only an array of fun abstract shapes, but a delightfully surprising final image. Enormously fun to play with, little ones will get a taste of how this book works on the MirrorPlayBook YouTube video or by using the QR code on the back cover.Trade Review"BOARD BOOKS 2018: WHAT WE'VE GOT IS A VERY STRONG YEAR: Has anyone else noticed that 2018 has been a shockingly strong board book year? Here's a small smattering of some of the true beauties I've run across this year .... Slick packaging and a clever idea (particularly if you want to teach symmetry at all)." Elizabeth Bird, slj.com"A moveable reflective surface provides an innovative ingredient in this high-concept book... Readers will have just as much fun rotating the shapes as solving the mirror puzzles" Publishers Weekly"Ingenious... an excellent choice as a gift for toddlers and preschool children. It would be a go-to book for interactive story times as well as for taking along on outings or whenever waiting will be part of the day." Celebrate Picture Books
