Description



About the Book



"Desi has so many scary thoughts. Is her brain a monster? Of course it's not a ... monster, and Mami assures Desi of this. Sometimes we just have scary worries running through our minds. And like anything in life, you just need to work to make things better. With gentle guidance from Mami, Desi realizes she's the boss of her thoughts. Together they try different approaches to clear their minds of these never-ending worries"--



Book Synopsis



In this Spanish edition of her debut picture book Desi, mami y las infinitas preocupaciones, actress Eva Mendes writes the story of a little girl facing the endless scary worries that come just before bedtime.

Cada noche, Desi comienza con el mismo estribillo: "¡MAMI! ¡HAY UN MONSTRUO DEBAJO DE MI CAMA!".

¡Desi tiene tantos pensamientos espantosos! ¿Es su cerebro un monstruo?

Por supuesto que no es un monstruo, y mami se lo asegura. A veces, simplemente temenos preocupaciones pavorosas rondando por la mente. Y, como cualquier cosa en la vida, solo necesitas esforzarte para mejorar las cosas.

Con la guía gentil de mami, Desi se da cuenta de que ella es la dueña de sus pensamientos. Juntas ensayarán diferentes métodos para despejar la mente de las infinitas preocupaciones.

Aunque a Desi se le ocurren de vez en cuando cosas que le dan miedo, se dará cuenta de que junto a su mamá puede enfrentar cualquier pensamiento.

La actriz Eva Mendes ha escrito una historia con la que todos los padres pueden identificarse: la batalla a la hora de dormir. Inspirándose en sus propias experiencias como madre, ha escrito una historia divertida e instructiva sobre una madre y una hija que trabajan juntas para deshacerse de los pensamientos aterradores y finalmente pasar la noche durmiendo.



About the Author



Eva Mendes comenzó a escribir en el jardín de infantes después de una breve carrera
garabateando. Llevó a cabo muchos emprendimientos desde joven: fue monitora del pasillo, formó parte del concejo estudiantil (aunque no duró mucho ahí), y a los quince años obtuvo su permiso de trabajo para poder finalmente trabajar en casi todas las tiendas de la Galería de Glendale. Sus primeros créditos como actriz incluyen Hada Madrina (3er grado), uno de los tres reyes en We Three Kings (4to grado) y bailarina estrella en el equipo de baile.

Vivió en Los Ángeles durante muchos años, pero se marchó para realizar uno de sus sueños no conectados con Hollywood: criar a sus dos hijas, Esmeralda y Amada, con su pareja, Ryan Gosling. Ah, y de vez en cuando actúa en algunas películas bastante geniales con personas muy creativas. También dirige múltiples empresas y le encanta embellecer el mundo que la rodea.

Con Desi, mami y las infinitas preocupaciones, Eva presenta la idea de que el monstruo grande y aterrador que hay debajo de la cama es solo un monstruo en nuestra cabeza.

Abbey Bryant, una ilustradora premiada que reside en la ciudad de Nueva York, gusta de las historias tiernas y los colores cálidos. Da vida a obras suaves, estilizadas y texturizadas, ideales para sus conmovedoras narrativas y personajes dulces y memorables. Comprometida con la inclusividad y la representación igualitaria como ilustradora queer, sus creaciones reflejan esta perspectiva única. Casi todos los días puedes encontrarla inmersa en la creación, ya sea llenando cuadernos de dibujos con neoyorquinos o dando vida a fascinantes historias.

Eva Mendes began writing in kindergarten after a short career in scribbling. She pursued many endeavors at a young age, including hall monitor, student government (however short-lived), and at age fifteen she obtained her workers permit so that she could finally work at "like, most every shop" in the Glendale Galleria. Her early acting credits include Fairy Godmother (third grade), one of the three kings in We Three Kings (fourth grade), and star dancer on the drill team.

She lived in Los Angeles for many years but has since left to concentrate on following one of her non-Hollywood dreams--raising her two children, Esmeralda and Amada, with partner Ryan Gosling. Oh, and from time to time she acts in some pretty cool movies with some pretty cool, creative people. She also runs different businesses and loves to make things more beautiful.

With Desi, Mami, and the Never-Ending Worries, Eva poses the very comforting concept that the big scary monster under the bed is just a monster in your head.

Abbey Bryant is an NYC-based award-winning illustrator with a heart for gentle stories and warm colors. She creates soft, stylized, and textured work perfect for touching visual storytelling and sweet, memorable characters. As a queer illustrator, her work is always rooted in inclusivity and equal representation. Most days, she can be found around the city filling sketchbooks with drawings of New Yorkers or dreaming up her next story.
