Español

Achimpa

Cuando un niño curioso inventa una palabra completamente nueva —achimpa—, nadie sabe muy bien qué significa, pero eso no impide que se difunda. Pronto todo el pueblo usa achimpa en cada frase, dándole nuevos significados y una vida propia. Este libro ilustrado de Catarina Sobral celebra el poder de la imaginación y el lenguaje, mostrando a los pequeños lectores cómo nacen las palabras, cómo viajan y cómo el significado se construye entre todos. Una historia llena de fantasía que invita a los niños a inventar sus propias palabras y a ver el lenguaje como un juego infinito de descubrimiento.

Catarina Sobral's playful picture book celebrates the power of imagination and language, showing young readers how words are born, how they travel, and how meaning can be created together. A whimsical story that invites children to invent their own words and see language as an endless game of discovery.
