Clásicos para el siglo XXI

'Clásicos para el siglo XXI' está formado por cuatro relatos clásicos reinventados por el prolífico escritor de literatura infantil y juvenil, Jordi Sierra y Fabra. En ellos nos contará la historia del humilde leñador Pascual y su hija Bella, que como su nombre indica, era de una extraordinaria belleza. Padre e hija vivían en un valle que finalmente disfrutaba de la paz, sin losruidos de disparos, ni soldados, y en el que ya nadie se acordaba de cuándo había empezado o acabado la guerra... También nos presenta la historia del Emperador, protagonista del relato 'El traje del nuevo emperador', y el artista más famoso de la historia de la música. Desde que su carrera musical había empezado apenas 5 años antes, había logrado 20 éxitos consecutivos y tenía a todo el mundo rendido a sus pies. Una serie de historias entrañables que nos sumergen en un mundo de fantasía y ensoñación. Este libro incluye los siguientes relatos: El soldado de plomo La bella y la bestia El traje del emperador Las habichuelas mágicas Este audiolibro está narrado en castellano. - Jordi Sierra i Fabra nació en Barcelona el 26 de julio de 1947. Es conocido por su obra como escritor de literatura infantil y juvenil y su trabajo como periodista musical. Su vocación de escritor es clara y firme desde muy temprano: confiesa que dio sus primeros pasos con tan sólo ocho años de edad y a los doce años ya escribió su primera novela larga, de quinientas páginas. Pese a su clara vocación no contaba con la aprobación o el entusiasmo de sus padres, quienes al acabar el bachillerato le obligaron a trabajar en una empresa de construcción durante el día y a estudiar para ser aparejador durante la noche. De su infancia ha dicho que 'fui tres veces reprimido: por mi padre, por el régimen y por la escuela franquista'. Aún así, su determinación y su tenacidad son más fuertes que cualquier obstáculo y sus insistentes cartas semanales a la cadena de radio Cadena Ser le llevaron a convertirse en uno de los fundadores de la revista 'El Gran Musical' en 1968. En 1970 pudo abandonar los estudios para convertirse en comentarista musical, lo que le permitió viajar por todo el mundo con grupos y artistas del momento mientras cubría sus actuaciones y escribir reportajes.

The selfish princess learns a valuable lesson when the king insists that she keep her word. She must allow the frog to share her dinner plate and her pillow at night, as she promised. However, all is not so bad when the frog turns into a handsome prince. The classic stories will delight children, parents, and grandparents alike.

Cinderella

"Cinderella", or "The Little Glass Slipper" (French: Cendrillon or La Petite Pantoufle de verre), is a very famous European folk tale. Once upon a time, there was a wealthy widower who married a proud and haughty woman as his second wife. She had two daughters, who were equally vain and selfish. By his first wife, he'd had a beautiful young daughter, a girl of unparalleled goodness and sweet temper. The stepmother and her daughters forced the first daughter into servitude, where she was made to work day and night doing menial chores. One day, the Prince invited all the young ladies in the land to a ball, planning to choose a wife from amongst them. The two stepsisters gleefully planned their wardrobes for the ball, and taunted Cinderella by telling her that maids were not invited to the ball. As the sisters departed to the ball, Cinderella cried in despair. Her Fairy Godmother magically appeared and immediately began to transform Cinderella from house servant to the young lady she was by birth, all in the effort to get Cinderella to the ball. She turned a pumpkin into a golden carriage, mice into horses, a rat into a coachman, and lizards into footmen. She then turned Cinderella's rags into a beautiful jeweled gown, complete with a delicate pair of glass slippers. The Godmother told her to enjoy the ball, but warned that she had to return before midnight, when the spells would be broken.... ***Please contact Member Services for additional documents***
