Chapter Book

Neftalí siente admiración y curiosidad por todo: los colores del aceite en un charco, un guante perdido que vuela con el viento, el canto de los pájaros. Le encanta coleccionar tesoros, soñar despierto y escribir, pasatiempos que su padre autoritario considera una pérdida de tiempo. Sin embargo, a pesar de todas las adversidades, el espíritu de Neftalí prevalece frente a su timidez y la crueldad de su padre hasta llegar a convertirse en uno de los poetas más leídos del mundo: Pablo Neruda. Una novela conmovedora sobre el nacimiento de un artista que inspirará a jóvenes escritores y artistas.

English Translation

The Dreamer

Neftalí finds beauty and wonder everywhere: in the oily colors of mud puddles, a lost glove sailing on the wind, the music of birds and language. He loves to collect treasures, daydream, and write—pastimes his authoritarian father dismisses as foolish. Against all odds, Neftalí prevails over his father's cruelty and his own crippling shyness to become one of the most widely read poets in the world: Pablo Neruda. This moving novel about the birth of an artist celebrates childhood, imagination, and the strength of the creative spirit, and is sure to inspire young writers and artists.
