About this item
A veces la tristeza llega sin avisar. No sabemos muy bien como, ni por que, pero de pronto sentimos que nos acompana a todas partes. Es una presencia molesta, asfixiante, que tratamos de evitar a toda costa. Incluso intentamos esconderla en el armario o debajo de la alfombra. Pero quiza, la mejor forma de afrontar la tristeza sea mirarla frente a frente, escucharla, comprenderla y abrazarla hasta que se desvanezca. Eva Eland ha compuesto un precioso album de estilo minimalista que nos invita a dialogar con los mas pequenos sobre como gestionar la tristeza. / When Sadness arrives, try not to be afraid: give it a name, listen to it and spend some time together. Maybe all it wants is to know that its welcome. This beautiful debut by new author-illustrator talent Eva Eland takes a poignant but uplifting look at dealing with uncomfortable emotions.
