Paperback. "The Discordant Chocolate" is a short story for small children (3-5 years old) and for anyone who has not lost their "inner child" yet. This story tells us about a city full of chocolate people, All of them very happy and harmonious people, but one; who for his bad temper and bad manners have got the nickname of "The Discordant Chocolate" It is a very "sweet" story that will delight little ones and will leave them a good message to see how even the most "grumpy" people have their friendly side and If one discovers the cause of that bad mood, that person can change his/her bad temper in good mood and kindness."The Discordant Chocolate" is part of a collection of short stories called "Cuentos para Rodrigo" (Stories for Rodrigo)The title of this collection is based on the author's son's name, Rodrigo, who, when he was a little 3 years old child, suggested the titles for her to improvise a story.All stories are written for children with the purpose of them using that wonderful tool that is their imagination. The stories are not "full of drawings" because, in this way, it is intended to encourage children to use their imagination and love reading.In the words of the same author: "Nowadays, children with all those new technologies, are "saturated with images" and these new technologies have accustomed them to being totally "visual" and therefore not using their imagination at all and this, undoubtedly, leads them to not reading, to not love Reading.Why to take the "trouble" of reading when the image tells me everything? When they are given a text without drawings or images or perhaps just two or three images, children "force" their minds to imagine what the text tells them, to use that tool they had "stopped" in their heads and to enjoy images created in their minds, to be able to "illustrate" themselves the text that has been given to them.When they are taught to use "the little motor"; their imagination, nobody is going to stop it! And they'll enter in the wonderful world of books, the fascinating world of reading where they can create the images in their minds and develop the plot of the text with a brilliance and sharpness that could never be found in a drawing or in a video" This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
