¡Lorenza, bájate del perro!, written by Toño Malpica and illustrated by Manuel Monroy, tells the tale of a father and his mischievous child. The protagonist, who continuously attempts to discipline his daughter, finds himself torn between being stern and compassionate.
There’s no doubt that raising a rebellious daughter is an ongoing journey; however, the protagonist finds the company of his playful child worth every battle. ¡Lorenza, bájate del perro! tells the honest tale of a parent’s daily routine: although children may misbehave, there’s nothing as wonderful as being a parent.
This delightful piece features wonderful writing, but it’s the illustrations that entrance readers. Audience members are sure to find themselves laughing along with the discourse featured in the narration.
