Charles Santore Libros

Escrito en 1865, Alicia en el País de las Maravillas es un clásico no sólo de la literatura juvenil, sino de la literatura en general. Popularizado por las decenas de versiones que de él se han llevado a cabo, el relato que el reverendo Charles Dodgson, verdadero nombre de Lewis Carrol, escribiera para la niña Alicia Liddell, de diez años, es un delicioso entramado de situaciones verosímiles y absurdas, metamorfosis insólitas de seres y ambientes, juegos con el lenguaje y con la lógica y asociaciones oníricas que hacen de él un libro inolvidable.

A collection of animal fables told by the Greek slave Aesop.

This enchanting tale, originally written more than 100 years ago by L. Frank Baum, marries all the magic and fantasy of The Wizard of Oz to the classic Christmas tale. Nicholas is a mortal child found in the forest and raised by a band of woodland fairies and elves, where he learns to whittle small trinkets and toys from wood. As he grows older, he makes it his mission in life to make children happy by carving and delivering toys. Such traditions like hanging stockings on the chimney, Claus's flying reindeer, and St. Nick's immortality are explained through Baum's colorful narrative thread. Award winning painter Charles Santore, who has interpreted such classics as Peter Rabbit, The Little Mermaid, and The Wizard of Oz, beautifully re-imagines this Christmas fairytale, which is sure to become a Christmas classic on children's bookshelves.
