Construcción de una ciudadanía intercultural y responsable

Y por fin se hizo de noche en nuestra pequeña ciudad. Sus habitantes, también los animales, duermen plácidamente... Aunque no todos, ¡la gran mayoría vive aventuras apasionantes!

Rotraut Susanne Berner nos cuenta con sus dibujos todo lo que puede pasar en una pequeña ciudad durante una noche de verano cálida y serena, mientras los murciélagos revolotean en silencio y presenciamos apresuradas correrías nocturnas ...

The sun is responsible for all life on Earth, but what exactly is it? Our star is an amazing force that can be as dangerous as it is important. From solar flares to the threat of blowing up altogether, the sun is one of the most interesting things in our solar system. Readers take a trip to the sun to see how it works and exactly what it is made of. They’ll learn about the life cycle of a star and see just how long we have until we have to find a new planet to call home. Don’t worry, they’ll be happy to learn that (hopefully) we have millions of years left!

It arms them with facts about alcohol, how it affects the teen mind and body, how to look for signs of a problem, and how to bring others on board to help.
