Lafcadio, de leeuw die terugschoot

release date: Nov 06, 2025
Lafcadio, de leeuw die terugschoot
In ''Lafcadio'' van Shel Silverstein wil een jonge leeuw vrienden worden met een jager - maar als dat mislukt, eet hij hem op en leert zelf schieten. Wat volgt is een razendsnelle opmars naar roem: van circusacts tot marshmallowkostuums en parades in de stad. Maar dan weet Lafcadio niet meer of hij een leeuw is of een mens... Op speelse wijze zet ''Lafcadio'' kinderen en volwassenen aan het denken: kun je veranderen zonder jezelf te verliezen? En wat als je nergens meer thuis bent?

Quien Compra un Rinoceronte?

release date: May 30, 2016
Quien Compra un Rinoceronte?
“¿Quién compra un rinoceronte?” es un clásico de 1964 que, con una propuesta estética muy sencilla a base de dibujos sin colorear, sorprende y cautiva por su sentido del humor, su frescura y la habilidad de Shel Silverstein para plantear argumentos divertidos y disparatados bajo una aparente seriedad. Ni el perro, ni el gato, ni el canario, ni los peces son ya la mascota ideal, sino un orondo rinoceronte, cuya presencia en el hogar aportaría múltiples ventajas (y algunos inconvenientes que el autor pasa por alto con generosa indulgencia). Destaca la traducción de Miguel Azaola que, respetando la rima de la versión original, no solo reinterpreta con ingenio el texto de Silverstein, sino que además mantiene la estructura en verso.
