Look inside
Un lírico libro debut para niños por la poeta inaugural presidencial Amanda Gorman y el ilustrador #1 superventas del New York Times Loren Long.

"Escucho el zumbido del cambio.
Es una ruidosa y orgullosa canción.
No temo la llegada del cambio
y por eso canto con gran pasión."
 

En este emocionante y anticipado libro para niños por la poeta inaugural presidencial y activista, Amanda Gorman, todo es posible cuando nuestras voces se unen. Cuando una  niña guía a un elenco de personajes por un viaje musical, ellos aprenden que tienen el poder de hacer cambios - grandes o pequeños - en el mundo, en sus comunidades y sobre todo dentro de ellos mismos.
 
Ilustrado por el renombrado Loren Long, El cambio canta usa texto lírico e ilustraciones rítmicas que llegan a un crescendo deslumbrante, y es la llamada triunfal a la acción a todos para que usen sus habilidades para hacer una diferencia.
