O Grande livro da água

Luci ha decidido cazar las moscas que, zigzagueando entre las páginas de su cuaderno de tareas, le impiden concentrarse. Usará una red tejida con palabras y silencios: la red de sus versos. Poco a poco, los insectos que la niña atrapa en su poema invaden su imaginación: la radio zumba, su hermana es una larva, las gafas de su abuela son ojos de múltiples facetas; ella misma sabe volar, transformada en mosca de alas frágiles por el poder de la poesía. Los versos de este poemario zumban y cabriolean, invitando al lector a acompañar a los insectos - y a Luci - en su vuelo caprichoso.
