Synopsis

El nuevo libro ilustrado en español de la novelista próspera (How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents) y autora de niños (The Tia Lola Stories) Julia Alvarez es un poema bellamente elaborado para niños que aborda delicadamente el lado emocional de la muerte. El libro pregunta, “Cuando alguien muere, ¿dónde va a parar? / ¿Será con el viento cuando le da con soplar? ... ¿Me hacen guiños—como estrellas cuando les pido un favor—parpadeando ‘Eres perfecta, no hay que ser algo mejor? ...” Ilustrado por la artista de grabado de Vermont, Sabra Field, ¿Donde va a parar?, es una hermosa y reconfortante meditación sobre la muerte, haciendo preguntas lectores jóvenes de español podrían tener acerca de lo que pasa a las personas que aman después de que mueren.
