About this book

Español

Tigres de la otra noche

Poemario que obtuvo el Premio Hispanoamericano de Poesía para Niños 2005. Es un viaje a la infancia que tiene como personaje central al tigre, animal que fascinó a Jorge Luis Borges, a quien la autora rinde homenaje. Los poemas, estructurados en forma circular, son breves y sencillos, y destacan por la facilidad con la que conectan con la imaginación infantil. En ellos el tigre es el amigo imaginario de los niños, su otro yo, un animal salvaje, libre y solitario, en el que pueden verse reflejados. La propuesta gráfica, llena de texturas, aporta fuerza y sentido al texto.

Tigers From the Other Night

A collection of poems that won the 2005 Hispano-American Children's Poetry Prize. It is a journey to childhood with the tiger as a central character, an animal that fascinated Jorge Luis Borges, to whom the author pays homage. The poems, structured in a circular form, are short and simple, and stand out for the ease with which they connect with children's imagination. In them, the tiger is the imaginary friend of children, their other self, a wild, free and solitary animal, in which they can see themselves reflected. The graphic proposal, full of textures, brings strength and meaning to the text.
