La enorme nada
María Baranda
- Reading
- Pause at each example and invite your child to say what they picture when they hear “nothing”. Let them offer their own meaning before discussing the book’s idea of expressing what they want.
- Themes
- Naming feelings and ideas: The book links expressing what one wants with the idea of “nothing” becoming smaller. The brief overview does not establish how the book develops this idea.
- Worth knowing
- The imagery includes an enormous, dark nothing hiding under a bed, as well as silence and being unable to go out to play. These may be worth noticing if such ideas feel close to your child.
