O LUGAR DO MEU AMIGO

"How good it is to have a friend to make up games, talk to or even stay silent watching the sea! The two friends in this story met on the beach every day – one came running on a bicycle, the other came leisurely, leaning on a cane. There, between the comings and goings of the waves, trips to distant lands, carts and popsicles, time passed. It passed, bringing many questions, discoveries and dreams. In the poetic prose of the author Marcia Cristina Silva, textual images beautiful stories tell the story of two somewhat different people, of a family and its mistakes, of memories and learning, of dreams and life. Catarina Bessell puts the colors of the sea in the illustrations and, with her lines and collages, translates the freshness and vivacity of the characters with great sensitivity."
