Reviews

[Karla Gontijo]

5 ⭐ para "O menino que carregava água na peneira", para as ilustrações, para o projeto gráfico e para o texto na contracapa do livro. 4 ⭐ para "A menina avoada".

"Será que os despropósitos não são mais carregados de poesia do que o bom senso?
(...)
Com certeza a liberdade e a poesia a gente aprende com as crianças."
