        I Like You - Just Like That!

        by Neele/ Marta Balmaseda

        A poetic picture book that makes it easy to forget arguments and anger: the little elephant is in a bad mood and kicks a stone. The stone inadvertently hits the flamingo – and the complaining and annoyance just keeps spreading. By the river, in the bush, on the savannah: just like that! Until a little meerkat has had enough and just hugs the snarling leopard. The leopard’s heart becomes light and gradually all the animals notice how good it is when we’re nice to one another. Just like that!

        by Oksana Bula

        All night a thunderstorm raged in the woods. The tukoni named Wanderer was sleeping and didn’t notice anything, but was awoken by the alarm signal that came from his best friend, the tree. Tukoni the Wanderer convenes the other tukoni, including Moth, who is making a magical comforter. The tukoni gather together and save Wanderer’s best friend, the tree that was struck by lightning during the night. The book has the title that it does because it’s about friendship with the place where you live. People live on the planet Earth. Tukoni live in the forest. For the tukoni, the forest isn’t a fortress, a place of work, or their property. The tukoni are friends with each other, but each and every of them is also a friend of the forest, the place where they live. It’s important to treat the place where you live as a friend.

Although, she is slightly put out when she sees someone begging for food, or oil in the ocean, or even a bully at school—what can she do? One thing at a time! "One piece of trash picked out of the sea, one word of kindness to someone in need, one word to a bully, one hug to a friend, a thing one by one, though the things never end."

It helps children – especially those with disabilities – to understand that by employing their imagination, they can move beyond any limitations. It depicts the combination of hope and imagination as the essence that drives life forward regardless of the cards one has been dealt. AWARDS & RECOGNITION: Image of the Books Winner, Russia 2020

        Una cabeza distinta (A different head)

        by Luis Panini, Chiara Carrer

        This child tells us that he is not happy with the head that he has. He thinks it is a wrong head. The parents, after listening to him, take him to a specialist, who agrees with the little one. A mysterious man dressed in black supplies him with heads in exchange for his own. The child tries several, until he finds the one he was looking for. A reindeer head, a crocodile head, a whisk head: the narrator child and protagonist of this story tells us about his disagreement with the head he has and the vicissitudes that he has to go through to find the head with which he will finally agree: the head of a grown man, of a mathematician. This is a story of search for identity and growth, developed with fine fantasy and humor, with the wisdom of someone he has sought and perhaps already found.
