By Eduardo Otálora

Qui n era ese Caballero de la Triste Figura? Qui n era el tal Sancho Panza? La pelea con los molinos fue real? Hasta d nde llega la imaginaci n?

La profe Milagros lleg el primer d a de colegio con un libro debajo del brazo, un libro que hered de su abuelo y que ahora leer con los ni os y ni as de 3A: El Ingenioso Hidalgo Don Quijote de la Mancha. Y as , con cada lectura, la nueva maestra de espa ol les cuenta qui n es Miguel de Cervantes, de d nde sale esta maravillosa historia, qui nes han retratado al Quijote y los anima a usar un diccionario para entender las palabras dif ciles del libro (aunque esto fue idea de Carmen, una de las ni as del sal n). Los ni os se emocionan tanto con las aventuras del Quijote, que llevan disfraces, imaginan unos hidalgos modernos con superh roes y se convierten en autores tambi n.

Este libro sencillo y entra able, as como fiel a la obra original, logra, en dos niveles narrativos (el momento en el sal n y la narraci n del Quijote), introducir a los ni os m s peque os a uno de los cl sicos m s importantes de nuestra lengua, animarlos a imaginar otros tiempos y ayudarlos a abrir la puerta a un mundo infinito de aventuras.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Who was this Knight of the Sad Countenance? Who was this Sancho Panza? Was the fight with the windmills real? How far does imagination go?

Teacher Milagros arrived on the first day of school with a book under her arm, a book that she inherited from her grandfather and that she will now read with the children of 3A: The Ingenious Knight Don Quixote of La Mancha. And so, with each reading, the new Spanish teacher tells them who Miguel de Cervantes is, where this wonderful story comes from, who has portrayed Don Quixote, and encourages them to use a dictionary to understand the difficult words in the book

(although this was Carmen's idea, one of the girls in the classroom). Children get so excited about the adventures of Don Quixote that they wear costumes, imagine modern noblemen with superheroes, and become authors as well.

This simple and endearing book, as well as faithful to the original work, manages, on two narrative levels (the moment in the living room and the narration of Don Quixote), to introduce the youngest children to one of the most important classics of our language, encourage them to imagine other times and help them open the door to an infinite world of adventures.
