Monarca \ (Spanish edition)
Autor Leopoldo Gout, Eva Aridjis Traducere de Tatiana Rose Lipkes Le Ducen Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 iul 2023
Una fábula ilustrada para todas las edades sobre una niña mexicoamericana que se transforma en una mariposa monarca y se embarca en la gran migración hacia México. Monarca teje los valores de la tradición, la ecología y la transformación personal.
El día que cumple 13 años, Inés recibe de su abuela de México un collar que la convierte en mariposa monarca: el cumplimiento de una profecía que vincula el destino de Inés con el legado de su familia y con la supervivencia de las mariposas.
La aventura continúa cuando Inés se une a las mariposas para su migración al santuario de las monarcas en México, una odisea que se ha vuelto cada vez más peligrosa debido a la actividad humana. El enjambre viaja desde el noreste de los Estados Unidos a los pantanos de Luisiana hasta las montañas llenas de pinos en la Sierra Madre occidental, y finalmente llegan al santuario de la Sierra Chincua. En este maravilloso libro en la línea de Juan Salvador Gaviota y El Principito, Inés descubre las conexiones entre todos los seres vivos y la urgente necesidad de proteger la migración y los hábitats de las monarcas.
Dividida en cuatro capítulos para imitar las cuatro etapas de la vida de una monarca -huevo, larva, pupa y mariposa-, Monarca mezcla el folklore mexicano, el ambientalismo y el realismo mágico en una encantadora novela. Ilustrada con los deslumbrantes dibujos llenos de color de Leopoldo Gout, este libro inspirará a los lectores a proteger y valorar el sagrado mundo natural que los rodea.
“A work of art. In each of the pages, you will feel the flow of a powerful energy which will murmur to each of your cells that it is time to come out of hiding, to open the windows, to breathe freely, to dress colorfully… to fly.”—Laura Esquivel, author of Like Water for Chocolate
An illustrated fable for all ages about a Mexican-American girl who transforms into a monarch butterfly and undertakes the great migration to Mexico, Monarca braids together the values of heritage, ecology, and personal transformation.
On her thirteenth birthday, Inés receives a mysterious necklace from her abuela in Mexico that turns her into a monarch butterfly—the fulfilment of a prophecy linking Inés’ destiny to her family’s legacy and the butterflies’ survival.
The adventure continues as Inés joins the monarchs on their long journey south to the butterfly sanctuary in Mexico—an odyssey that has become increasingly perilous due to human activity. Together, the swarm travels from the northeast to the swamps of Louisiana to the pine-filled mountain tops of the western Sierra Madre, finally alighting at the Sierra Chincua sanctuary. On this wondrous journey in the vein of Jonathan Livingston Seagull and The Little Prince, Inés discovers the connections between all living beings, and the urgent need to protect the monarchs' migration and habitats.
Divided into four chapters to mirror the four stages in a monarch’s life—egg, larva, pupa and butterfly—Monarca blends Mexican folklore, environmentalism, and magical realism in an enchanting novella. Illustrated with stunning full-color drawings by Leopoldo Gout, this book will inspire readers to protect and cherish the sacred natural world around them.
