Sirenas, de Jessica Love y Kókinos, es la historia de Julián, un niño que ama las sirenas y que aprovecha mientras su abuela se baña para disfrazarse de una de ellas, con hojas a modo de cabellera, flores, los labios pintados y una cortina como cola. Cuando su abuela lo ve, Julián se asusta pensando que se enfadará. Pero ella lo sorprende con el mejor regalo: le regala un collar para completar su atuendo y lo lleva al desfile de Carnaval. Un álbum bilingüe de texto mínimo e ilustraciones desbordantes que celebra la identidad y el amor incondicional.

English Description:

Sirenas by Jessica Love and Kókinos is the story of Julián, a boy who loves mermaids and who, while his grandmother bathes, dresses up as one: leaves as flowing hair, flowers, painted lips, and a curtain for a tail. When his grandmother sees him, Julián is scared she will be angry. But she surprises him with the best gift: a necklace to complete the outfit, and a trip to the Carnival parade. For bilingual classrooms and book-loving homes alike.
