A heartfelt story that highlights the ever-present love and comfort a family brings one another during a time of uncertainty and strife.
Set during the Cuban Revolution, this lyrical picture book for 6-9-year-olds balances the experience of upheaval and hardship with the hope of brighter days ahead.
Cuando la violencia militar brota en las calles del barrio de Lucinda, su familia se une para empujar muebles contra las puertas, rellenar grietas con servilletas húmedas y encender velas durante la noche. En medio de explosiones y gritos, el corazón de Lucinda golpea fuertemente en su pecho. Al mismo tiempo, la cuchara de Mamá golpetea en la sartén caliente. ¿Cómo puede ser capaz de cocinar con todo lo que está ocurriendo allá afuera?
Una luz para Lucinda hace honor al instinto humano de proveer orden y estabilidad en tiempos de caos y conflicto, presentando una historia conmovedora e inspiradora.
When military violence erupts in the streets outside Lucinda's home, the family joins together, pushing furniture against doors, filling cracks with wet napkins, and lighting candles when met with darkness. Amidst the blasts and cries, Lucinda's heart taps against her chest. Mamá's spoon taps against her sizzling pan. How can she cook when so much is happening outside?
Una luz para Lucinda honors the human instinct to provide order and stability during times of chaos and strife with poignant, uplifting storytelling.
