Description

Winner at the 2014 International Latino Book Awards. Little Ivan has so many fears that he has forgotten to dream. An encouraging story that will kindle the strength to overcome our fears.

The sea, mist, loud noises… Ivan’s afraid of everything! There are times when he dreams about having great adventures and visiting far-away lands, Ivan knew that it would be impossible for him. You see, Ivan’s secret is that, ever since he was little, he had always been frightened of things. And with all those frights and shivers, his dreams of having great adventures and visiting faraway places seem more and more unlikely.

One afternoon in August, on Ivan’s seventh birthday, an unexpected visitor arrived at his house. It was his Uncle Harry, who had returned from one of his long journeys around Africa and had come to wish Ivan a happy birthday. Could an unexpected visitor help him overcome his deepest fears? Could an old African song change his life forever?

“This picture book shows us that the strength necessary to face any obstacle is inside us. The artwork by the artist Cha Coco, in ocher tones with red details predominate, is at the same time full of strength and tenderness.” —Apogeoyliteratura
