Book Synopsis



This high-quality Spanish-language book can be enjoyed by fluent Spanish speakers as well as those learning the language, whether at home or in a classroom.

Este libro de Beverly Cleary que gano el Newbery Medal investiga los pensamientos y las emociones de un niño de sexto grado, Leigh Botts, en la forma de carta mientras el escribe a su escritor preferido, Boyd Henshaw.

Después que su parientes se separan, Leigh Botts se mueve a una ciudad nueva con su madre. Esforzando a hacer amigos y enfrentarse con su propio ira por su padre ausente, Leigh se pierde en una tarea de escribir a su escritor preferido. Cuando Mr Henshaw le responde, los dos forman un amistad inesperada que cambia la vida de Leigh para siempre.



From the Back Cover



Dear Mr. Henshaw,

I wish somebody would stop stealing the good stuff out of my lunchbag. I guess I wish a lot of other things, too. I wish someday Dad and Bandit would pull up in front in the rig ... Dad would yell out of the cab, "Come on, Leigh. Hop in and I'll give you a lift to school."

Leigh Botts has been author Boyd Henshaw's number one fan ever since he was in second grade.

Now in sixth grade, Leigh lives with his mother and is the new kid at school. He's lonely, troubled by the absence of his father, a cross-country trucker, and angry because a mysterious thief steals from his lunchbag. Then Leigh's teacher assigns a letter-writing project. Naturally Leigh chooses to write to Mr. Henshaw, whose surprising answer changes Leigh's life.

This is a high-quality Spanish language edition of the beloved Beverly Cleary classic.

Cuando Leigh Botts envia a su escritor preferido una extensa lista de preguntas, el Senor Henshaw le responde con otra lista de preguntas. Al principio, Leigh se enoja muchisimo pero cuando termina de responderle, se da cuenta de que en papel se puede expresar de una forma que jamas se hubiera atrevido personalmente. Las cartas de Leigh y el diario que estas le inspiran a escribir, originan un libro conmovedor y divertido acerca de encontrarse a si mismo."
