Publisher Description: Este cuento para antes de dormir, sobre la hora de ir a dormir, muestra como un ni o activo y curioso ayuda a una de sus madres a crear un cuento m gico. Juntos ellos tejen una aventura nocturna que acaba con el ni o No y su gato que canta Diva en el territorio de los dragones. nete a ellos mientras descubren algo inesperado y ayudan a un nuevo amigo a encontrar su camino. Also available in English, The Different Dragon Author's Note: I wrote The Different Dragon more than ten years ago, when I longed to read my children bedtime stories that mirrored the reality of our playful, average two-mom family. At the time I was also beginning my work as a PreK-12 consultant, helping schools address issues of gender and sexuality. Early Elementary teachers use The Different Dragon to teach students about the joy of telling stories, the value of being true to oneself, and the problem with stereotypes--- even of dragons. The Gay Lesbian Straight Educators Network (GLSEN) created a PreK-3rd grade lesson featuring Dragon that explores different kinds of families. You can find a copy of "Respecting Families Nurtures Everyone " in the back of this book.] Born in Spain, Alba is keenly aware of the audience for this book. She understands the transformative power of literature and believes "the importance of a translated children's story like The Different Dragon is immense." I share her hope that El drag n diferente "will bring messages of gay rights and the new roles of children to a very eager Spain." This Spanish version will allow families and students in classrooms everywhere to read this inclusive, whimsical tale. Whether you are a parent, teacher, young reader or aspiring translator, enjoy |
