Based on the life of Charlotte Parkhurst, this rollicking adventure story traces the daring and unusual escapades of a real 1860’s girl who disguised herself as a man so she could live, work, and vote as she pleased.
From airplane/avión/avion to zigzag/zigzag/zigzag, Marthe Jocelyn and Tom Slaughter have created a unique ABC for the very young. The book works perfectly in three languages, English, Spanish, and French (English, Español, and Français). In each case, deceptively simple paper cuts will delight the eye while young readers explore words in three languages.
The book has been carefully constructed to accommodate each language, including the letters which occur in Spanish, but not in English or French. Earlier collaborations by Tom Slaughter and Marthe Jocelyn have received raves from critics. This new addition to their library is yet another excellent introduction to modern art, to words, and this time to the fun of languages

Buenas noches, Luna
por Margaret Wise Brown
Ilustrado por Clement Hurd
En una gran habitación verde, arropado en su cama, está un conejito.
— Buenas noches, habitación.
— Buenas noches, Luna — dice el conejito.
Y así sucesivamente, le da las buenas noches a todas las cosas que reconoce en su cuarto: al cuadro de los tres ositos sentaditos en sus sillas, a los relojes y a los calcetines, a los gatitos juguetones y a los lindos mitones.
En este cuento clásico de la literatura infantil, adorado por generaciones de niños, la poesía que encierra su texto y la ternura de sus bellas ilustraciones con-vierten a éste en un libro ideal para culminar el día.
