El despertar de la señorita Prim

Two plays by Juan Mayorga that exemplify the author's philosophical drama. Hamelin is set in an unnamed, corrupt city where the powerful and rich prey on the poor. Will a Pied Piper save the city's children from the "rats" that plague it? La tortuga de Darwin tells the story of Harriet, the tortoise that Charles Darwin brought back to England from the Galapagos. Since her voyage, Harriet has evolved into a turtle-woman, able to think, speak, and bear witness to the terrible events of the past two centuries.

¿A que figura pertenece esta forma? ¿Es parte de un pulpo, de un cocodrilo, de un florero o de un elefante? Este libro está concebido para los lectores más pequeños. La autora propone un divertido desafío: muestra una figura que parece ser el fragmento de algo más grande. Luego ofrece varias posibilidades y, al final se invita, a los chicos a que utilicen su imaginación y propongan las suyas. La obra incluye una plantilla con la misma figura para que el juego esté completo.

The sun is responsible for all life on Earth, but what exactly is it? Our star is an amazing force that can be as dangerous as it is important. From solar flares to the threat of blowing up altogether, the sun is one of the most interesting things in our solar system. Readers take a trip to the sun to see how it works and exactly what it is made of. They’ll learn about the life cycle of a star and see just how long we have until we have to find a new planet to call home. Don’t worry, they’ll be happy to learn that (hopefully) we have millions of years left!
