A musical theater play is in process
An album book that talks about the importance of the game and accepting us as we are. Without shoes, somewhat disheveled and always accompanied by a mouse, the protagonist invites us to play with her, to bend and straighten, to put on our heads and even to balance on an abyss. The little girl explores the world through free play, without submitting to stereotypes or pre-established norms.
The ability to move freely makes comprehension and domain of the physical world easier for children, allowing them to appropriate the reality around them. This stage is essential so that they can feel safe and fully develop. La Pequeña Niña invites kids (and why not adults) to play while they read and overcome their fears through text.
