El soldadito pensaba. Un solo pensamiento, grande como su cabeza: la guerra. Siempre lo pensaba: en primavera, de noche, en abril, en navidad, a mediodía, los martes. No había otros pensamientos en esa cabeza, que ya estaba bastante llena de por sí.” Un libro que encuentra la poesía en las palabras y las acuarelas. Una historia dedicada a todos los soldaditos del día a día que no se contentan con marchar con la cabeza baja, sino que van por la vida buscando la paz, no la guerra.

The small soldier had but one thought: war. It was all he thought of during spring, night, April, Christmas, midday, even Tuesdays. There were no other thoughts running through his mind. This book is comprised of poems and watercolor illustrations, and it is dedicated to all those soldiers that refuse to look down. It’s for people that seek peace, and not war.
