El Mundo Era Nuestro (Spanish Edition)

by Jacqueline Woodson (Author) Leo Espinosa (Illustrator)

Reading Level: 2nd − 3rd Grade
Cuando hace tanto calor como para hacer estallar los hidrantes, eso solo significa una cosa: ¡por fin llegó el verano! Liberados de la escuela y disfrutando de su libertad, los niños de una cuadra de Brooklyn hacen de las calles su patio de recreo. Desde la mañana hasta la noche, crean su propia diversión, dejan volar su imaginación y aprenden a trabajar y jugar juntos. Es un mundo donde todo es posible... al menos hasta que sus madres los llamen a casa para cenar. Pero no hay que preocuparse: saben que siempre hay un mañana para volver a hacerlo, porque la calle les pertenece y ellos gobiernan en su mundo. Rebosante de energía, el texto rítmico y las vívidas ilustraciones de Jacqueline Woodson y Leo Espinosa capturan gloriosamente la alegría y la libertad del verano, así como el crecimiento que conlleva la independencia.
