Recordando a Abuela

A strange boy with red hair leads a birthday-girl and her companions on a hunt for the wishing tree which brings them many surprising and magical adventures.

Acompañadas de alegres y divertidas ilustraciones, Stephanie Blake nos trae las aventuras de Simón, un pequeño conejo blanco que transmite toda la vitalidad de la infancia: es adorable, tiene mucha energía, le encanta hacer travesuras ¡y es muy muy divertido! «¡Caca de vaca! ¡Caca de vaca!», grita Simón cada vez que su papá o su mamá le piden hacer algo. De la mañana a la noche y de la noche a la mañana, ¡no hay manera de que el conejito diga otra palabra! Hasta que un buen día aparece el lobo y al pequeño Simón no se le ocurre otra cosa que decirle: «¡Caca de vaca!»...

Portraying the secret life of various everyday objects, their feelings, and their concerns, this illustrated work makes for a fun and fascinating read. The whimsical illustrations detail things that nobody knows: that library cows graze on the words inside books, that library books read each other when no one is looking, and that a cat falls in love with a refrigerator not because of how it looks, but because of the milk inside.
