"Lucas asiste a la escuela perfecta en el vecindario perfecto. Y cuando obtiene calificaciones perfectas, siente que encaja perfectamente. Pero la vida en casa no es tan perfecta. La vieja camioneta de su papá se sigue descomponiendo. Su mamá trabaja muchas horas como empleada en la cafetería. Y Lucas debe compartir su pequeña habitación con su hermanita. Una noche, a Lucas lo despierta una extraña luz, la cual sigue hasta el lugar en donde viven las personas perfectas. Ahí todo es más bello de lo que se podría imaginar. Pero mientras más tiempo está ahí, más se pregunta lo que significa ser perfecto. ¿Significa nunca cometer errores? ¿Significa rechazar a su bullicioso vecindario y a su amorosa familia? ¿Y qué tiene de genial ser perfecto, de cualquier manera? De los talentos galardonados de Matt de la Peña y Paola Escobar llega este conmovedor e inspirador libro ilustrado acerca de un niño, en casa en dos mundos, que descubre lo que es sentirse bien consigo mismo."--Amazon.com.
Description
Lucas attends the perfect school in the perfect neighborhood. And when he gets perfect grades, he feels like he fits in perfectly. But life at home is not so perfect. His dad's old truck keeps breaking down. His mother works long hours as an employee in the cafeteria. And Lucas must share his small room with his little sister. One night, Lucas is awakened by a strange light, which he follows to the place where perfect people live. Everything there is more beautiful than you could imagine. But the longer he's there, the more he wonders what it means to be perfect. Does he mean never making mistakes? Does it mean rejecting her bustling neighborhood and his loving family? And what's so great about him being perfect, anyway? From the award-winning talents of Matt de la Peña and Paola Escobar comes this moving and inspiring picture book about a boy, at home in two worlds, who discovers what it is to feel good about himself.
