"Un día conté tus dedos y los besé todos uno a uno'. Con esta frase abre Alison Mcghee el hermoso texto de este cuento que recuerda, uno a uno, los momentos importantes en la vida de la hija de la narradora. Ver la nieve como se deshace en la piel de su bebé, aprender a cruzar la calle, o andar en bicicleta son situaciones en la vida de todos los niños que poco a poco les ayudan a hacerse adultos. Y poco a poco es como este libro, sin ahorrar ninguna etapa, acumula las emociones de una vida hasta que la narradora, mucho mayor de lo que era al inicio del cuento, describe el futuro en el que 'algún día yo estaré en este porche y miraré tus brazos, saludándome, hasta que desaparezca'. Esta es una poderosa oda al amor potencial y al potencial de la vida. Un libro que querrás compartir con alguien más& algún día.

A creative spirit learns that thinking “ish-ly” is far more wonderful than “getting it right” in this gentle fable from the creator of the award-winning picture book The Dot .Ramon loved to draw. Anytime. Anything. Anywhere.Drawing is what Ramon does. It's what makes him happy. But in one split second, all that changes. A single reckless remark by Ramon's older brother, Leon, turns Ramon's carefree sketches into joyless struggles. Luckily for Ramon, though, his little sister, Marisol, sees the world differently. She opens his eyes to something a lot more valuable than getting things just "right." Combining the spareness of fable with the potency of parable, Peter Reynolds shines a bright beam of light on the need to kindle and tend our creative flames with care.
