Este libro nos habla de Cuadrado. Y de su amiga Círculo. Y también de mantener los ojos y la mente bien abiertos para encontrar belleza donde otros solo ven rocas y escombros.
Cuadrado saca bloques de una cueva y los sube por la montaña hasta colocarlos en la cima. Es su trabajo. Su amiga Círculo lo visita, le dice que es un gran escultor, un genio! Y le pide que haga una escultura de ella. Pero es Cuadrado un gran artista? Él piensa que no, pero aún así... lo intenta.Los dos creadores de libros infantiles con más talento de la actualidad, juntos en este sorprendentemente sencillo y divertido álbum ilustrado que invita a la reflexión.------------This book is about Square. This book is also about Square's friend Circle. Also it is about Square trying to make something perfect, like Circle is. But it is hard to make something perfect.This book is about Square. Square spends every day taking blocks from a pile below the ground to a pile above the ground. This book is also about Square's friend Circle. Circle thinks Square is an artistic genius. But is he really? With the second story in a trilogy of tales about Triangle, Square, and Circle, Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen nudge readers toward a more well-rounded way of looking at things. Understated and striking in its simplicity, this funny, thoughtful offering from two of today's most talented picture-book creators emphasizes the importance of keeping your eyes -- and your mind -- open to wonder where others see only rubble and rocks.Author Biography
