"Charming, playful, and extraordinary imaginings will galvanize young minds to find inspired answers to their own questions."—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
¿Por qué es azul el mar? ¿Qué es la lluvia? ¿Qué le pasó a los dinosaurios? Puede que ya sea hora de acostarse, pero un niño tiene demasiadas preguntas acerca del mundo para conciliar el sueño. Los chiquitines y mama y papá quedarán encantados y deleitados al ver como un padre responde con paciencia y creatividad a las preguntas suscitadas por la imaginación del niño antes de dormir. Todo niño que haya preguntado alguna vez “¿Por qué?” — y todo padre que haya intentado dar una explicación — se reconocerán a sí mismos en este dulce libro de cuentos para soñadores que buscan respuestas más allá de un “Porque sí”.
Why is the ocean blue? What is the rain? What happened to the dinosaurs? It might be time for bed, but one child is too full of questions about the world to go to sleep just yet. Little ones and their parents will be charmed and delighted as a patient father offers up increasingly creative responses to his child’s nighttime wonderings. Any child who has ever asked “Why?” — and any parent who has attempted an explanation — will recognize themselves in this sweet storybook for dreamers who are looking for answers beyond “Just because.”
