What does freedom mean to you? Doing whatever you want? But what about the consequences of your behavior on others? From the freedom to be yourself to respecting the freedom of others, this beautifully illustrated book explores the idea and experience of freedom in its many different aspects. Every page brings its own message around what it means to be free and the ways we can listen, learn and respect others in our right to freedom.

An important, timely and beautiful celebration of freedom, identity, difference, and respect.

Todos creemos saber lo que es ser libre, pero es mucho más de lo que piensas. Ser libre incluye a los demás y la verdadera libertad significa saber escuchar, respetar y compartir.    

Una oda a la libertad y a su verdadero significado. ¿Sabías que todos somos libres y tenemos alas? Pero aprender a volar lleva su tiempo y exige dedicación. Ser libre no es hacer lo que quieras, porque todos nuestros actos tienen consecuencias. Lo más importante para que tus alas no se rompan es portarte bien contigo y con los demás. Todos los que te rodean también tienen derecho a mover sus alas por dónde quieran. Escucharlos y respetarlos es parte de la libertad.

Simple, accessible, and direct, this picture book is perfect for kids and parents or teachers to read together, opening the door to conversations about gender stereotypes and everyone’s right to be their true selves.

Is it okay for boys to cry? Can girls be strong? Should girls and boys be given different toys to play with and different clothes to wear? Should we all feel free to love whoever we choose to love? In this incredibly kid-friendly and easy-to-grasp picture book, author-illustrator Elise Gravel raises these questions and others relating to gender roles, acceptance, and stereotyping.

Daniela discovers her grandmother’s old book with stories of ten brave pirate women. From the seas of China to the shores of New York, from ancient Greece to modern times, these female pirates sailed the oceans.

Explore the lives of some of the notable female pirates: Awilda, Mary Read, Lai Choi San, Grace O'Malley, Ching Shih... Although they were often forbidden from sailing, they refused to accept their destinies. Their lives and deeds inspired Daniela.

In this beautifully illustrated book, Raquel Díaz Reguera evocatively addresses the delicate themes of control and possessiveness, creating awareness of what is acceptable and what is not.

When Mousy moves in with Buck, she finds their life isn’t quite like she thought it would be… Buck seems to want to control everything she does. He starts asking her strange questions: “Isn’t it a little late for you to be getting home?”, “Are you hiding something from me?”, “Wear this – don’t you want to look pretty for me?”.

As time goes on, Buck becomes more possesive and, while Mousy seems to shrink, Buck seems to be transforming from a mouse to a cat. Mousy must find the courage to escape the burrow.
