Description

A whimsical and moving story about discovering your purpose by Jos Sanabria and Mara Laura Daz Domnguez.


The last little newspaper on a newsstand wonders what its life will be like until a gust of wind sends its individual pages flying. Each page travels to a different place and experiences a vastly different lifefrom being used to clean a mirror and line the cage of a pet to being formed into a boat by a child and sheltering a homeless person from the colduntil, at last, the final page finds its true calling. Sanabrias expressive art and thoughtful story reflect many ways our lives can be touched.
