Produktbeschreibung
Twin Sisters is a bilingual story based on real characters, Milagros and Cristina Durán Alfaro. This is a story full of adventure and motivation for those children and youth who have talents in different areas of the arts. This story tells how Grandpa Felix discovered the talents of his twin granddaughters and taught them to love painting and drawing. He taught in their primary years to feel the breath of nature and be part of it. He taught them, how to observe the morning dew on the leaves, the sprouting of flowers along the green meadow, the stillness of the lake and the sound of the rolling river. The light, as it fell over the leaves and radiated shades of green, yellow and brown. Grandpa Felix taught them to capture those feelings with a brush or pencil on a canvas or paper sketchbook. Many years ago, Grandpa Felix used the same motivation with his daughters: Milagros and Carlota Alfaro, who years later became two distinguished Puerto Rican designer couturiers. He wanted to leave his legacy with his twin granddaughters. When the twins grew up, they went to work at the Carlota Alfaro Academy, where they studied everything about design. Then they shared their acquired knowledge, offering couture lessons. This inspiring story is based on real persons, teaching our children, to discover and develop their talents. The author provides an email address for her readers to share their talents and what they want to do with them when they become adults. This motivational story will help children in building their self-esteem.
