Libros para niños de todas las edades

Ya lo dije, septiembre llegó con gran intensidad. Sigo trabajando con un grupo de niños, además de dar una la clase en la universidad y crear libros únicos.  Ha sido muy interesante entrar y salir de un mundo imaginativo al otro.....

Para enfocarme aún más en los pequeñines, ayer fui a la biblioteca a hojear libros infantiles.  Estos tres libros me llamaron la atención:

HOME: A Call to 30 Distinguished Authors and Illustrators of Children's Books to Aid the Homeless

Elevator  por Lucille Clifton 

down

in the corner

my book and I

traveling

over the project

walls

so the world

is more than this

elevator

stuck between

floors again

and home

is a corner 

where I crouch

safe

reading waiting

to start moving

up.

                                                 Life Doesn't Frighten Me por Maya Angelou 

Shadows on the wall

Noises down the hall

Life doesn't frighten me at all

Bad dogs barking loud

Big ghosts in a cloud

Life doesn't frighten me at all

Mean old Mother Goose

Lions on the loose

They don't frighten me at all

Dragons breathing flame

On my counterpane

That doesn't frighten me at all.

I go boo

Make them shoo

I make fun

Way they run

I won't cry

So they fly

I just smile

They go wild

Life doesn't frighten me at all.

Tough guys fight

All alone at night

Life doesn't frighten me at all.

Panthers in the park

Strangers in the dark

No, they don't frighten me at all.

That new classroom where

Boys all pull my hair

(Kissy little girls

With their hair in curls)

They don't frighten me at all.

Don't show me frogs and snakes

And listen for my scream,

If I'm afraid at all

It's only in my dreams.

I've got a magic charm

That I keep up my sleeve

I can walk the ocean floor

And never have to breathe.

Life doesn't frighten me at all

Not at all

Not at all.

Life doesn't frighten me at all.
