I am, I can

(Portuguese edition)

When growing up, we learn something new every day. An emotion, a joke, a sound, a flavour. One day we dive, the next day we discover a new place. Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose. In this adventure of being and growing, every experience counts.

In this book, Madalena Matoso’s illustrations and Ana Pessoa’s words speak together, bringing us closer to those moments when we’re absorbed by growing up and taking new steps.

They might be historical milestones (like those written about in books) or more subtle achievements – they’re all just as important. What they have in common is the determination, rhythm, energy and resilience that one needs to grow up.

“I am. I can. I bring. I king. I ping. I pong.”

Come along, to discover this poem that never stops growing.
