begins and ends children's literature, thinking that their author to write for kids @ s, in a didactic sense, education, training, recreational, it is also interesting to adults, (for / the babysitter who went or who we are) although not specifically choose, like any other literature. Benefits and risks the trade. However, what features should be children's literature to spark interest in l @ s s obesity, and at this point, Italo Calvino, acquires a fundamental role, guiding in a critical sense towards brevity, the essential logic, style of the narrative, language, these elements of seduction and charm sources are cautioned by young audiences. Because it is known that the idea of \u200b\u200bsociety has been changing, evolving, and has become aware, by l @ s escritores/as- making space for children, no longer works as was once moralizing and didactic but educational, aesthetic and imaginative. Do not forget that from S. XX children's literature began to branch out into several sub-genres, drama, poetry, short stories, not only manifested in all its importance, but it also begins to consider a lucrative market for the publishing industry, also in the field of psychology and psychology . It should be noted that each time someone tries to establish what are the rules you must follow a / a writer / a child to write a text, politically correct, I think there is provision, rule, statute, regulation, code, law, guideline, guidance , method, pattern, may only be attractive to the child reader, because art is always an element of mystery not be reduced to any ordinance. However, what a @ can agree, in terms of creativity and innovation as reflective capacity, imaginative and emotional, is that there have been demonstrations across different periods and literary movements that still own and occupy a unique the history of children's literature. These days, nobody doubts that reading is essential to master the language and encourage children's imagination through children's stories, to be born in them recreational alternatives, not forced to be revealed in adulthood as a partner in its development personal and professional. It is for this reason I think that the words of Isaac Bashevis Singer, Polish writer, he received the Nobel Prize in Literature 1978, are in force today, to list the reasons why he wrote for children. Here the following reasons: (1) Children read books, not literary criticism. Not give any importance to criticism. (2) do not read to discover its identity. (3) do not read to exempt from blame, to suppress their desire for rebellion or to get rid of alienation. (4) Do not feel the need for psychology. (5) They detest sociology. (6) Do not try to understand Kafka or Finnegan's Wake neither. (7) still believe in God, family, angels, demons, witches, gnomes, in logic, clarity, punctuation obsolete and other nonsense like that. (8) They love interesting stories and no comments or footnotes. (9) When a book is boring, they yawn openly, without shame or fear of connoisseurs. (10) Do not expect their beloved writer to redeem humanity achieved. Despite being children, they know that the author does not have that power. Only adults such childish illusions feed. So why? A point coincident with my own judgments about the work submitted to me by Marianela Puebla to write the prologue (which I appreciate because I enjoyed the best way I can make a reader, which is to go in crescendo, en progression growing, "the hunger to discover the outcome) is that an intellectual clarity, a kind of encouragement, which has the support of a full time job, "as a writer committed to our word, that is, has devoted his literary vocation frenzy, there's no turning back I'm here and here I stay, I think I hear . OUR SECRET The work of Marianela Puebla, tells the story of a hypersensitive child. Work immersed in a magical realism devoid of any educational or moralistic intention, which contributes to the development of events such as motor Magin's imagination "Gerardo", the protagonist, who is confronted with supernatural experiences and will experience from the implementation of punishment of confinement used their guys in a dark room under the stairs. Novel apparently illusory, unreal and fanciful, but vivid. The language is direct and compelling. It acts as a conscience, wisdom and emancipation that is perfectly suited to children's literature to play down tensions in conflict situations and a scene of fear and loneliness, selfishness and cruelty, so that also recreates the fantasies of a child who violates its reality by life full of excitement and adventure. Mystery, ingenuity and the telling of the merit they guarantee the work. All his characters are intertwined and form part of a large family. You do not need clever name that was previously baptized in children's literature to the protagonists. However, curiously find gnomes, as the dealer of dreams, nightmares collector, the collector of sighs, the gas collection, the collector leaves, among others. Marianela Puebla teaches children's literature is subject to other laws that adult literature. A door, of course kaleidoscopic within a cultural context teaching children, so used to teach and educate through fantastic stories. A novel of eighteen chapters, which brings the world of children, youth and, why not say, adult. Suggestive in its subject. Unfinished, as the phenomena that have no rational or scientific explanation. Simple, because it lacks frills and repairs in your language. Surprising, according to the story being told. Psychosocial, as a fact or discriminatory or mechanism resulting in the life of l @ s @ s obesity orphans s. Virtuous teaching. Significant because it explains different ways of interpreting the world of children. Sensitive and appropriate to discover and enjoy all the potentialities of the human being from the educational point of view. Stimulating, because its way to the imagination and fantasy. Education, because it allows the development of language, memory and the ability to recreate images and scenes in the mind of / the babysitter. Finally, I think it is a site for answers to psychologists, an open door to enter the world of children, and sometimes they leave the reality we live to break into a dream world, and so autoauxiliarse.
