Codrile was hungry, but mammy crocodile had to watch the nest. There was an egg in the nest and inside the egg… a brother. Codrile went off ready to hunt alone, but he was still a little small and he wasn't used to getting his own food. Children learn almost without being conscious of their own evolution. Codrile, in spite of being little, shows a certain maturity in that he is able to face up to his needs and tries to demonstrate an independent behaviour. The cycle of life, growth and the birth of a brother make us face up to the new demands associated with independence. In a certain way, this situation implies breaking certain family ties. In any case, the birth of a brother is something beautiful that brings about more advantages than disadvantages. For that, any fear that brings about a conflict is totally dispersed when the elder child understands it does not mean competing for affection. A simple story musically narrated and recreated in affectionate and colourful illustrations. Images that allow approach, nearness and complicity with the feelings of the main character. Text by Roberto Aliaga Illustration by Minako Chiba Translation by Mark W. Heslop

The bear wanted to fly and the crow wanted to be strong like a bear. How to achieve it? The answer seemed simple: change the wings for arms and fly! or not? Monika Klose, a German writer living in Barcelona, offers us an amusing story about dreams, loyalties and broken agreements, with a clear message: we all have something of value in us, all that is needed is to look deep down inside, to value our capabilities without giving up our dreams, because who knows if one day The Portuguese illustrator, Andre da Loba, has designed an original plastic proposition through a series of cardboard sculptures. The scenes show plain and clear backgrounds, and a cubist concept for the characters and a great expressive force, based on the primary colours. This illustrative work stems from a previous investigation in which the Portuguese artist has studied the movement and balance in three dimensional figures carried out using waste products.

Making symbolic and metaphorical use of the mathematical operation of subtraction, Juan Darién brings us closer to the injustice of wars originating in the erroneous interpretation of all that which is different, supposes a threat. This work is dedicated to disarming such a fallacy and accentuates in affirming that knowledge of others enriches and magnifies: it does not subtract, it adds. Darien makes an iconographical proposal of a marked warlike setting through a representation technique digital collage of a simple structure and primary forms, multiplied under the effects of a constructive-plastic treatment as elemental as effective from a chromatic point of view. A story for peace that uses concepts such as slavery, abuse, resolution of conflicts, but also a didactic tool to get to know codes and mathematical processes by reason of the motivation it provokes, the attitude created and the mediation the plastic language exercises and the literary narrative in understanding the abstract concepts. For that, its used an expressive typographic play reserved for the main characters, which strengthens the understanding of a proposal that tries to bring closer a mathematical concept to readers not very advanced and that, in any case, allows enjoyment of a discipline that is understood more as use is made of it. And all in a package full of universal values such as freedom, peace, respect towards others and to the difference.
