Me and theWorldAn Infographic story
Mireia Trius and Joana Casals
Graphics and visualisations give us a method to use images to describe a story in a way that we can understand.
This is a little story where a girl describes her little world, her daily life, her famiy, school, the breakfast she eats, clothes she wears and routines compared to the big world through information data graphics and visualisations.
There is a data revolution taking place across the globe right now. From journalism to government, the world’s stories are being told through numbers and facts. But while we treat this as something that only applies to adults, it belongs to everyone. And the younger it starts, the better.
If children want to comprehend the world around them, infographics can do that.

Desde los gaviotines árticos viajando de polo a polo,
pasando por los salmones que suben los ríos de su
infancia contra corriente hasta la mariposa monarca
y su increíble viaje, las grandes migraciones de los
animales son una de las mayores maravillas
del mundo natural.
Algunos animales utilizan sofisticados sistemas de
navegación, otros nacen con los mapas grabados en sus
genes o son capaces de calcular las distancias según la
altura del sol, pero todos encuentran su camino.
Para destacar estos increíbles viajes, hemos recopilado
en este libro una lista de 14 animales viajeros.
Fascinantes rutas que nos llevarán

La ruta:En el sudoeste de Asia y sur de Europa, el flamenco común es un ave migratoria.Desde julio hasta octubre vuela hacia las zonas de hibernación en África para poder volver de febrero hasta abril.
Los flamencos
suelen poner solamente un huevo. Los padres se turnan
para incubarlo y mantenerlo caliente.
El característico
color rosáceo de los flamencos proviene de los carotenoides de las diminutas gambas que
comen.
Son monógamos. Permanecen toda la vida con la misma
pareja.
GolondrinaCaracterísticas:
Tamaño: el macho, entre 17 y 19 cm Envergadura: de 32 y 34,5 cmPeso: entre 16 y 22 gVida: entre 4 y 6 añosHábitat: viven en pueblos y pequeñas ciudades. También en prados de cereal, praderas y huertos próximos a núcleos urbanos. Las encontramos en casi todo el planeta: Europa, Asia, África, América y norte de AustraliaAlimentación: insectos que suelen atrapar al vuelo. Beben sin parar de volar rozando la superficie de ríos y lagos.Enemigos: aves depredadoras, como azores y gavilanes, gatos, gaviotas, mapaches, ardillas, serpientes y el hombre.
FLAMENCO COMÚNLos flamencos son aves de patas largas y de color rosado pálido, con un pico grueso.Les gusta el agua salada y suelen vivir en zonas de marismas o lagunas poco profundas cercanas a la costa, en África, el sur de Europa y el sudoeste de Asia.Los vemos a menudo sosteniéndose de pie sobre una sola pata y acurrucando la otra debajo de su cuerpo para mantenerla caliente.
Escapando del invierno Es excepcionalmente social: vuela en grandes bandadas y anida en grandes grupos, de modo que forma colonias de 20.000 a 200.000 pare-jas. Las colonias del norte suelen migrar a regio-nes más cálidas durante el invierno. El vuelo de los flamencos es muy característi-co, con las patas y el largo cuello bien extendi-do. Forma extensos grupos que, al volar, cubren completamente el horizonte.
Cómo lo hacenViajan durante la noche y pueden recorrer alre-dedor de 500 o 600 km en un solo día. Son gran-des voladores, elegantes y ágiles, pero necesitan correr mientras golpean sus alas para despegar. Antes del aterrizaje, realizan un deslizamiento más largo y corren unos pocos pasos al tocar el suelo. Pueden volar a una velocidad de entre 50 y 60 km/h.

Good NightHouse Cats
New
On the top of a white big mountain lived a polar bear. One day a strong sound came from inside the earth. The bear was very scared and ran away. The sky turned orange.
And afterwards red.
And then turned pink.
The bear was still scared and continued running.
Then the sky turned purple and he stopped. He couldn’t understand what was happening.
A red cat got into a big house and went to find a room to rest. At the same time a green cat arrived next to the door.
He was also tired and went and laid in his room. Meanwhile a blue cat was getting close to the house.
While a black cat was ar-riving, the blue cat went to his room.
The same happened with the yellow cat.
And with the green cat.
But… where did the green cat go?

Three Little Pigs
Everyone knows about traditional stories, but there is an added excitement to enthu-siastically retell the tale. This activity is a wonderful way for kids to get really involved in the story.
Despite all the digital games available to children, they will find that old-fashioned imaginative play is still king. Puppets are a fantastic starting point and it doesn't take much to put on your own puppet show.
With this puppet theatre book your child can tell the story of the Three Little Pigs and also be part of it. They can move the char-acters as puppets, represent the scenes and play the different roles.
