Mapa de Los Buenos Momentos (Spanish Edition)
by Fran Nuño (Author) Zuzanna Celej (Illustrator)
Ganador del premio New York City Big Book Award en 2017. Dicen que siempre volvemos a los lugares donde amamos la vida, donde fuimos felices. Zoe, una niña que debe huir de su ciudad con su familia por causa de la guerra, los rememora antes de partir.
Zoe lleva toda la vida viviendo en la misma ciudad. Se conocía cada edificio, cada parque, cada rincón. Pero la guerra estalló y, como muchos otros, tuvo que decirle adiós a su ciudad y marcharse sin saber cuándo podría volver. Zoe tiene tantos buenos recuerdos de su ciudad... La casa de los abuelos, su pequeño refugio lleno de sueños y juegos, su antigua escuela, ahí donde conoció a sus amigos y aprendió que le encantaba aprender cosas nuevas. Por no hablar del parque del centro, que tanto la vio divertirse entre columpios, artistas ambulantes y paseos en bicicleta.
A punto de partir, Zoe extendió el mapa de la ciudad en una mesa y dibujó su «mapa de los buenos momentos», señalando todos los lugares donde fue realmente feliz, con la certeza de que siempre la acompañarán.
