The Super 8. A mysterious beginning, by Melina Pogorelsky (Ralenti). With illustrations by Sabina Álvarez Schürmann and Carolina Romano, it is the first volume of a children's saga by an author that I love. In this book, a group of girls become friends after discovering that their parents (who have known each other since childhood) have a secret that they carry from their youth. The story, full of humor and intrigue, takes place in a campsite closed to the public, where Las Super 8 spend their vacations. Pogorelsky's book is one of the first titles published by the new Ralenti label, founded by publishers Joana D'Alessio and Violeta Noetinger. I highly recommend it for girls and boys from 8 to 11 years old.

Any vegetable (Ralenti). With poetry and humor, Nicolás Schuff brings to life unusual stories starring vegetables (yes, vegetables). A vain and individualistic pea, an intellectual potato, a lying onion and an indecisive radish are some of the characters that come together in this charming illustrated book by Gabriela Burin. Ideal to convince the little ones, 6 years and up, that vegetables can also be fun.

Las Súper 8. Un verano de película, de Melina Pogorelsky y Maricel Santin (Ralenti). La segunda parte de la saga de Las Súper 8 viene recargada: con ilustraciones de Carolina Romano y Sabina Álvarez Schürmann, este volumen incorpora recursos narrativos como la historieta, fragmentos de guiones de cine y hasta recetas de cocina. Todo junto da como resultado un libro fascinante que no van a poder largar hasta el final los lectores y las lectoras que hayan disfrutado de la primera parte. Aunque, en realidad, también puede leerse "suelto" porque en las primeras páginas las autoras retoman la trama para ubicar la historia de las siete amigas (con parentescos cruzados) que se reencuentran en un camping un año después de haber descubierto un misterio que involucra a sus respectivos padres. Esta vez, las chicas se proponen filmar una película de zombis para presentar en un concurso local. Aventuras, suspenso, humor y guiños a los millenials en esta historia que pronto tendrá una tercera parte.

“¡HOLA, ¡HOLA, DESPIERTEN, ATENCIÓN!
ESTAMOS POR TOCAR UNA CANCIÓN.”
Así comienza este libro que invita y propone una orquesta. Un libro que es parte de una iniciativa que hace posibles más libros para las personas más pequeñas. Bebés, chicos y chicas más grandes que están empezando a leer y les leen a los más pequeños.
Es un proyecto llevado a cabo por la editorial Ralenti junto a Lecturita (Club de libros infantiles). Esta iniciativa hizo posible la colección Miniaturas: cuatro hermosos títulos para leer, jugar y morder. En formato pequeño, cuadrado, en cartoné. Ideales para el disfrute autónomo de los más chiquitos.
¿Qué orquesta es esta? Es un libro que invita a tocar y a cantar. Trae reminiscencias a la felicidad que daba escuchar y mirar a la vez Pícolo, Saxo y compañía, de André Popp y Jean Broussolle, con ilustraciones de Jesús Gaban. Un libro para leer y escuchar, jugar y bailar, cantar y tocar.
La rima de cada página se acompasa con las ilustraciones expresivas de Aimar, que, a su vez, van contando una historia que se da en paralelo. Animales que se van sumando, a la par que los instrumentos. Una delicia.
Un libro muy recomendado para las personas más pequeñas de la casa, pero también la imprenta mayúscula anima a quienes se aventuren a leer solos. Belleza de libro. Si se quedan con ganas de más, hay otros tres hermosos títulos, también escritos por Laura: ¡Qué caiga un chaparrón!, ilustrado por Clau Degliuomini (que viene con una larga hoja para pintar), ¡Qué plato!, ilustrado por Federico Bonifacini y ¡Qué bien la pasamos!, ilustrado por Cristian Turdera.

Jump rope at night, by Roberta Iannamico and Pablo Picyk (Ralenti). Beautiful poems by Iannamico illustrated by Picyk that sing to the night and nature. Also, to fears, imaginary monsters, ghosts, witches and magic. And something else: at the end the characters of the poems appear, which have curious names, with a minibiography. An example that I loved: "Rod and Frank are partners in a referral company. They are doing very well." Recent edition of the new children's literature label, it is one of those jewels that should not be missed. They are warned.

“The little radish rode a horse, wrote poetry, worked as a waiter, as a chess teacher and as a hat maker. Now he's swimming in the sea, like a fish. "Are you nuts?" –Asks a cauliflower ”.

With text by Nicolás Schuff and illustrations by Gabriela Burin, in its pages readers will find out what the mysterious carrot does all day, why the pea complains and what the know-it-all potato thinks of many things.

Because if something happens in the kitchen, it is any vegetable. What a joy humor turned into poetry. What can be the mystery carrot? Can you imagine a pretentious pea or a know-it-all potato?
They are any vegetable to kill yourself with laughter, which also leave you thinking about some existential questions such as not knowing what to do with your life, even if you are a radish, or having a desire for hegemonic beauty, even if you are a pea. Irony, humor, bad humor, some anger, nonconformity, complaints and other herbs make a salad, or it could also be a stew. (Follow...)
