Then a general comes to Pedro’s school and announces a contest for the best composition. The theme? What My Family Does at Night. This little picture book shines. It could have easily been a diatribe against dictatorships but the author makes his point without lecturing. And, in the process, he shares little moments in the lives of families during this scary time. Here’s a little bit from the story, with Pedro talking to his friend about the essay. “What are you going to write?” he (Pedro) asked. “Anything,” said Juan. “How about you?” “I don’t know,” said Pedro. “What did your parents do yesterday?” asked Juan. “Same as usual. They came home, they are, they listened to the radio, they went to bed.” “Just like my mother.” My mother started crying,” said Pedro. “Mothers are always crying,” said Juan. “I hardly ever cry,” said Pedro. “I haven’t cried for a year.” “What about if I hit you and you get a black eye. Would you cry then?” asked Juan. “Why would you do that when you’re my friend?” said Pedro. “That’s true. I wouldn’t,” answered Juan. La composición es un ejemplo de las injusticias del gobierno en un lugar se llama Perú. Es una historia de dos niños se encuentran disposición porque un padre estaba en un situación mal. Creo que este libro se demostrada un situación real en una manera sensitiva. Pero, también el libro es triste porque hay muchas situaciones reales como este en muchas países con los gobiernos como este. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

A beautifully written and illustrated tale that drew me in from the start to finish, with unexpected depth and a profound theme of standing up to abuses of power at any age. ( )
