A Great Day of Fishing

That day Roque had a very strange idea.
He decided to go fishing, but he didn’t have a rod.

Roque has the unusual idea of going fishing. And it’s a very strange idea because he doesn’t even have a cane. To fulfill this wish, he will be helped by friends and acquaintances who will join the expedition. Page by page and rhyme by rhyme, they will accumulate all the necessary stuff to organize, more than a great day of fishing, a fun party.

Key points

• The authors have received multiple awards, such as the Compostela and Benicarló Prizes, and their works have been Selected in IBBY Honour List, Bologna Book Fair and Sharjah Exhibition, among others.
