Edel Rodriguez es un artista cubanoamericano que ha realizado exposiciones internacionales en muchos lugares de Norteamérica y Europa. Su obra audaz y figurativa, inspirada en su historia personal, rituales religiosos, ideas políticas, recuerdos y nostalgia, explora temas como la identidad, el desplazamiento cultural y la mortalidad. Su obra confronta a quienes ostentan el poder al mejor estilo de la tradición estadounidense de la Primera Enmienda y la libertad de prensa. A lo largo de su carrera, Edel ha creado obras de arte para muchos clientes entre los cuales se cuentan megamarcas como Nike, MTV y Pepsi, y publicaciones variadas como The New York Times, TIME Magazine y The New Yorker. Algunas de sus creaciones se pueden apreciar en el Smithsonian, en Washington, D. C., así como en colecciones privadas en todo el país. Pero el lugar donde probablemente es más fácil ver sus obras es en internet, donde sus seguidores de todo el mundo las comparten con frecuencia.
 
 
Edel Rodriguez is a Cuban American artist who has exhibited internationally with shows across North America and Europe. Inspired by personal history, religious rituals, politics, memory, and nostalgia, his bold, figurative works are an examination of identity, cultural displacement, and mortality. His work speaks truth to power in the American tradition of the First Amendment and freedom of the press. Throughout his career, Edel has created artwork for numerous clients, including mega brands like Nike, MTV, and Pepsi, and various publications such as The New York Times, TIME Magazine, and The New Yorker. Some of Edel's work can be seen at the Smithsonian in Washington D.C., as well as in private collections across the country, but you're most likely to see his work circulating online via reposts from his fans worldwide.
"A board book instilling determination in little ones and reminding them that they are important while helping them work through emotions. This title is a good addition to Spanish-language collections for children." --School Library Journal
