Description

From Newbery Medal-winning author Matt de la Pena and bestselling illustrator Loren Long, the powerhouse duo behind the #1 New York Times bestseller Love, comes a moving meditation on the places we feel most comfortable, loved, and protected-wherever that might be. Available in a Spanish-language edition! Del autor ganador de la Newbery Medal Matt de la Pena y el ilustrador bestseller Loren Long, los creadores de Love, el bestseller nomero uno del New York Times, llega una edici n en espanol de esta sumamente emotiva oda a los lugares en donde nos sentimos seguros, amados y fieles a nosotros mismos, dondequiera que se encuentren. Hogar es una sonolienta canci n de cuna y un murmullo de trafico que de noche se cuela entre tus cortinas. Hogar es la tenue sirena de una barcaza lejana mientras tu abuelo lanza el sedal desde el borde de su casa flotante. Asi comienza esta emocionante celebraci n del hogar en sus diferentes formas. Ya que el hogar es una idea mas profunda que los muros que levantamos a nuestro alrededor. Es la familia que demuestra su amor por medio de pequenos gestos cada dia. Es la comunidad que se apoya en los tiempos dificiles. Y es la maravilla del mundo natural, un refugio que compartimos con todo ser viviente en la Tierra. From Newbery Medal winning author Matt de la Pena and bestselling illustrator Loren Long, the creators of the #1 New York Times bestseller Love, comes a Spanish language edition of this deeply moving ode to the places we feel safe, loved, and true to ourselves-wherever they might be. Home is a tired lullaby and a late-night traffic that mumbles in through a crack in your curtains. Home is the faint trumpet of a distant barge as your grandfather casts his line from the edge of his houseboat. So begins this stirring celebration of home in its many forms. For home is an idea more profound than the walls we build up around ourselves. It's the family that shows its love through small gestures every day. It's the community that sees one another through hard times. And it's the wonder of the natural world, a refuge we share with every living thing on Earth.
