¿TEJERÁ UNA LEYENDA ANTIGUA EL DESTINO DE UNA JOVEN? En un pueblo de montaña vivían la abuela Atl, una tejedora muy talentosa, y su nieta, Nemimati. Nemimati solamente quiere ayudar a su abuela a vivir una vida mejor, por lo que la convence de participar en un concurso en el que el ganador recibirá el título de Hiladora Real y podrá vivir en la comodidad del Palacio Real. La abuela Atl envía a Nemimati y a su joven amigo, Mishtla, a recoger los escasos y semillas mágicas de colorantes rojo con centros amarillos a partir de los cuales se puede hacer un tinte dorado luminoso. Finalmente, los niños se detienen a descansar cerca de las ruinas de un misterioso jardín del palacio donde el Árbol Fantasma de la leyenda aparece fortuitamente y llena gentilmente sus cestas. Sin embargo, no es hasta el día del tan esperado concurso que Nemimati y su abuela Atl escuchan la explicación de la apariencia del árbol milagroso. Este relato mítico está ambientado en la era precolombina de un emperador tolteca que tomó su nombre del dios Quetzalcoatl. Su leyenda lo proclama como un soberano benévolo que promovió el sacrificio sincero unos por otros en lugar del rito religioso de corazones sacrificados practicado por otros gobernantes. También se dice que presentó a sus sujetos con riqueza y conocimiento.

El árbol no puede volar, pero el pájaro no puede echar raíces... El librito es un tesoro: es de la mejor prosa sentenciosa del habla canaria universal, "sin canarismos de uso", "sin folklorismos localistas". Cada palabra, cada oración sintáctica, está en su conciso valor de belleza clásica; las cadenas expresivas encantan como un manantial que brota como burbujas de agua fresca y clara; los nexos, las partículas birrelacionales, los adjetivos y sus incidencias, las sustancias y los verbos forman un espejo donde la exactitud se refleja con nitidez. Ningún pájaro puede volar dos veces en la misma brisa...

Winner at the 2019 Independent Press Awards. A beautiful story, printed on stone paper, about the importance, care, and preservation of trees, and the small steps we can all take to care for the planet. One night, the trees in the forest decided it’s time to uproot and leave. They yanked out their roots and dragged themselves off across the fields. On his way to school, Goran soon realized what is happening... All the trees had disappeared and holes could be seen where they used to be. Bewildered, he rushed home to find if the tree in his garden had vanished as well. He loved that tree, it used to be his friend during springtime when he swung from his branches, and also in summer when its leaves protected him from the hot sun. Understanding the consequences this would have for animals, humans, and the environment, he set off to counteract the damage that had already been done.
