Poetry becomes sweet and fun with Marisa López Soria. This book of poems is a reading adventure, full of smell, colour and flavor. She recovers popular songs, tongue twisters and riddles, and also evokes hot summer days, furtive first kisses and friendship dalliances. A whole world of longed-for illusions and happy childhood ooze in the verses, always musical and playful, wrapped in the best illustrations.

A first baby arrives in the family and for the grandfather, who is a poet, many verses emerge... This book is a song of birth, of tenderness, the oldest lullaby. It is also the evidence: life, like nature, goes on, both on parallel paths... Nothing more beautiful and intense than this outbreak of verses to illustrate that universal experience of being both: grandfather and grandson.

Poetry and herbs complement each other. There is abundant flora in the history of poetry. In this herbarium, the author collects a bounch of herbs from the garden of their childhood, and each one carries a portion of memory, and therefore feeling. The lichen is delicate like a caress, the fern evokes the maternal laughter, the fungus hides the mystery of life and the moss is tenderness... Here is an exciting journey –in verse and prose– to the leafy exuberance of our being.

This colorful book hides a valuable story. Cuban author Dulce María Loynaz, one of the most prominent voices in contemporary Hispanic poetry, wrote her pages when she was a high school student. In reality, they were part of an exam notebook that never reached the teacher’s hands, remaining forgotten in a drawer for half a century. With great wit and irony, that young student expressed her challenging vision of the world through the animal kingdom. Because of its strength and ingenuity, Bestiarium could persuade any young reader to approach and enjoy poetry.

What is the sea for a poet? What does the ocean store at the bottom of its waters? What dreams and memories are lost there? What voices can emerge from a sea shell? What is that melody that the tide sings? In this collection of marine poems with delicate images, reading is like getting lost, entering a universe where everything is light and deep, big and small, real but from another world.

It´s bed time and the little one asks to leave the lights on because he´s afraid of the monster under the bed. As in ways of a little stage, the reader discovers that three different creatures live at the room, and enjoys knowing that none of them knows about the existence of the others. In a fun and exciting way, this kamishibai-style tale shows us how the creatures meet, get scared and reconcile, while the setting changes and becomes ordered and disordered depending on the mood of the characters. It has an ending with many possibilities that will make readers enjoy reading, which we cannot reveal in this synopsis because you must read this book.
