En este libro se reúnen 9 cuentos para niños, mis favoritos fueron;
En "El hombre de negro y el perrazo" expone cómo los adultos tomamos imágenes para asustar o coercionar a los niños y luego se nos regresa.
En "Un suéter azul claro" una niña tiene que decidir qué hacer con información muy delicada que le da su hermana acerca del Niño Dios y los regalos.
En "Prohibido, superprohibido, terminantemente prohibido" una niña se da cuenta de cómo funcionan las reglas en la escuela y las usa para mejorar su autoestima.
Historias breves para compartir con los más pequeños y disfrutar con la imaginación de la autora.

Relatos súper cortitos pero con grandes enseñanzas.
