Julia & Paco: El cumpleaƱos de Julia / Julia & Paco: Julia's birthday

Part of Julia & Paco

Illustrated by Mar Villar
La jirafa Julia y el puercoespín Paco son grandes amigos.

Ella es altísima y muy tímida.

Él tiene púas y es un poco cascarrabias.

Dentro de poco será el cumpleaños de Julia. ¡Tiene que ser un día perfecto! A Julia se le ocurren un montón de ideas para su fiesta. Pero ninguna es «perfecta». ¿Encontrará una forma de celebrarlo que guste a TODOS sus amigos? Quién sabe. Quizá si le da una vuelta al asunto con ayuda de su abuela, consiga tener la mejor fiesta de cumpleaños de la sabana.

Si quieres descubrir cómo, abre el libro y apúntate a la fiesta.

¡Todo el mundo está invitado!

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Julia the giraffe and Paco the porcupine are great friends.

She is very tall and very shy.

He has spikes and is a bit of a grouch.


It will be Julia's birthday soon. It has to be a perfect day! Julia comes up with a lot of ideas for her party. But none of them are "perfect." Will she find a way to celebrate so that ALL her friends have fun? Who knows? Maybe if she turns it around with the help of her grandmother, she can have the best birthday party on the savannah.
 
If you want to find out how, open the book and join the party.

Everybody is invited!"
Begoña Oro es experta en literatura infantil y fomento de la lectura. Su obra ha sido traducida a varias lenguas y ha ganado el Premio Gran Angular, Premio Hache, Finalista del premio El Barco de Vapor y Premio Eurostars Narrativa de Viajes.

Cientos de miles de niños han aprendido a leer con sus personajes: el rey de la noche, doña Despistes, Superleo, la ardilla Rasi (y su pandilla)... Y han querido seguir leyendo sus «Misterios a domicilio» o sus novelas juveniles.
