A perfect tale to read to curious daughters. To the dreamers. To the ones who love braids. To the ones who prefer to wear their hair down. To the ones who fill their mouths with jelly. To the ones that chat away, even when they're asleep. To the ones who watch in silence, and smile. To the ones who discover the world in the tiniest things. In short, this is a message of love, to remind all daughters that their moms and dads will be there every step of the way through the wonderful adventure that is life. Un delicioso cuento para leer a las hijas curiosas. A las sonadoras. A las que les gustan las trenzas. A las que prefieren el pelo suelto. A las que se llenan la boca con mermelada. A las que hablan hasta estando dormidas. A las que miran en silencio y sonrien. A las que descubren el mundo detras de las cosas mas pequenas. En definitiva, un mensaje lleno de amor para que las ninas recuerden que sus mamas y sus papas estaran siempre a su lado en cada paso que den en esta maravillosa aventura que es la vida.
"The delightful illustrations lift this above many others of its ilk"Kirkus Reviews
