Description
Coauthors Acosta (Little Captain Jack) and Amavisca (Bang Bang I Hurt the Moon) keep their focus tight, concentrating on Ben’s feelings and the way the boys’ taunting torments him (“He felt even sadder than the day his fish went to fish heaven”).
Loose-lined drawings with gently tinted wash by Gusti (Mallko and Dad) underscore the intimacy and loyalty of Ben’s family. ~Publishers WeeklyThis is a story inspired by true events. Ben is a little boy, and he likes painting his nails.
There’s no big reason to it, he just loves all the amazing colors on the tips of his fingers.
Until one day, some of his schoolmates start laughing at him because of it.
He suddenly feels sad, helpless, and doesn’t want to paint his nails anymore.
Even when his father starts painting his nails to support Ben, the helplessness doesn’t go away. Why can’t boys paint their nails? A tale to understand that a kid’s joy has no boundaries. A simple story about a small revolution.
