Este libro es un conjunto de piezas a las cuales probablemente le llamen escritos. Tiene de todo un poquito, creo que por eso el titulo. Esto es un pedacito de mí y un pedacito del mundo, según yo. Es un cúmulo de sorpresas y emociones. Te sube, te baja, te rompe, te construye, te llena y muchas cosas más. En este libro yo hablo sin tabú, es mi libro, mis pensamientos, mis escritos y mis opiniones. Son cosas de mi mente, hay partes un poco fuertes y palabras soeces. No tengo más nada que decir, el resto descúbrelo por ti mismo/a.

The discovery of this course and the unique role we're meant to play in it forms the basis of our life's experiences.

Mix with music till loud - you might want to stand back. A fun addition to any child's bookshelf.' 'The illustrations are gorgeous and can be explored along with the words for even more fun. A great addition to the kids' library!' 'I took this colourful, fun book to share with my grandson (age 6). I expected to read it to him, however he confidently read it to me, stopping to discuss the story as he read. When asked for his opinion, I got 'I loved it!' The illustrator Gustyawan has ensured each page is full of colour with a different, friendly cartoon style animal, playing a new instrument on each page. The accompanying writing, written in a simple, child friendly font (letters correctly formed!) is surrounded by four colourful notes of music. I also liked the way the pictures alternate which side they are on. This is an easy to read, fun book for children. There are some lovely touches of humour in the pictures and by the time we reached the last page, I could imagine the cacophony of noise coming from the band as they all played together.'
