Lucero (Bright Star, Spanish Edition)
A heartbreakingly beautiful story about growth, empowerment, and finding one's own voice, reassuring the lonely and afraid in difficult times.
This is the Spanish language edition of Bright Star.
Child, you are awake!
You are alive!
You are a bright star,
Inside our hearts.
Told with a combination of powerful, spare language and sumptuous and complex imagery that is typical of Yuyi Morales's work, this is the story of a fawn making her way through a border landscape teaming with flora and fauna native to the region. A gentle but empowering voice encourages her to face her fears when she comes across an obstacle in the form of an insurmountable barrier.
Yuyi Morales' first book since her bestseller Dreamers is a book for very young children looking for their place in a world full of uncertainty. It is a book with resonance for all children, especially those whose safety is threatened due to the immigration crisis in the US.
This is the Spanish language edition of Bright Star.
