Synopsis

When Cricket goes for a walk, he finds Ladybug searching for something in her garden. She’s lost one of her spots! Since Cricket doesn’t have any spots, he doesn’t think they’re important. Bee has a problem too: her wing is all tangled up! Spider is running low on silk and Centipede doesn’t have enough shoes… But Cricket doesn’t think any of those things are that important. But what will Cricket do when he faces a problem?

Abeja tiene un ala enredada y no puede usarla, Mariquita perdió uno de sus lunares, a Ciempiés le faltan unos pocos zapatos… Pero a Grillo ninguna de esas cosas le parecen muy importantes, porque él no las usa.

About this title

About the Authors

Susanna Isern grew up among mountains in the Spanish Pyrenees. When she was little, her favorite hobby was to run around, discovering incredible insects and helping sick or endangered animals. It was then that animals started to whisper her stories, which she hurried to write in the notebook she always carried with her. She is the author of many children’s books, most of them distributed internationally and translated into over a dozen languages. She has been awarded the Silver Medal in the Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards 2013 in the USA.

Born in 1983 in the Cantal, France, Mylène studied applied arts (graphic design, advertising publishing) and then comics in Angoulême, where she lived 15 years before moving to the south west of France in the heart of the nature. She works specially for the press and youth publishing but she has illustrated many books translated in many languajes. She likes to draw nature, plants, animals and her draws are filled with small details.

Reviews

PreS-K—Spring has finally arrived, and Cricket decides to go for a walk and visit his friends. On this venture, he encounters Spider, Bee, Ladybug, and Centipede, who all happen to each have a predicament. However, as Cricket is learning about the issues affecting his friends, he doesn't see why these problems are so important. After all, these concerns have never impacted him. It's time that Cricket learns a lesson on empathy. Award-winning Spanish children's books author Isern offers young readers a delightful Spanish-language picture book that provides food for thought. The medium size two- to four-line black text paragraphs are mostly set on the top of the page, allowing enough space for the full-size page illustrations. The narrative contains words that can be used by caregivers and educators to stretch young listeners' vocabulary. Illustrator Rigaudie uses a palette of black and shades of blue, yellow, and green to bring the tale and its characters to life. The detailed renderings include curved lines that add movement and vitality to the characters and the environment. This book could be used in a preschool storytime or in a classroom unit highlighting friendship. VERDICT A strong Spanish-language selection to add to mindfulness shelves, especially those in need of titles emphasizing empathy.—Kathia Ibacache, Univ. of Colorado Boulder
