Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Just as uplifting as the English edition, this charming Spanish version is sure to captivate young bicycle enthusiasts and their grandparents. In a zippy text, Schwartz tells the story of a 66-year-old cyclist who competed in the Tour of Sweden, and to the surprise of the judges, finished first. Soft-toned watercolors showing the eager gentleman en route add tenderness to the story. Even young children will understand Superabuelo." --ALA Booklist
"Superabuelo reminds us not to take no for an answer. Readers will learn that old people can do amazing feats with their bodies. Dodson's watercolor illustrations match the artistry and comedy of this unlikely and highly entertaining tale. The accompanying CD features a beautiful reading of the book with background music. The narrator has a warm, rich voice, which he aptly changes to portray the variety of characters in the story. Strongly recommended for libraries and bookstores." --Críticas (School Library Journal)

Reseña del editor:

Ages 4 and up. Hardcover book w/ audio cd. A thrilling picture book based on the true story of Gustaf Hakannson's historic bike ride. In 1951, at age 66, Gustaf entered the Tour of Sweden--over the judges' objections--and, to the delight of his countrymen, finished first! Captivating for children and inspiring to seniors who refuse to "go home to their rocking chair."
