Hop aprende a nadar
"A wonderful choice for Spanish-language picture book that would make a great summer read. Kids will want to dip right in." — School Library Journal *Starred review
¡Splash! Mamá rana quiere que todas sus ranitas tomen clases de natación. A flotar, a nadar de espaldas, a patalear en el agua. . . Hop se esfuerza pero a menudo hace un lío de las cosas. ¡Hasta que un día se sorprende a sí mismo!
Un libro divertido y encantador sobre una ranita que encuentra su propio camino en la clase de natación. Para pequeños nadadores de 4 años en adelante.
Esther van den Berg (1982) studied illustration at the art academy in Kampen, where she also grew up. At the academy, she liked to stand with her fingers in the black ink of one of the printing presses. After a good turn, etchings, linocuts, and monotypes appeared on the other side of the printing press.
After her graduation she left for the Randstad and worked as a designer. Only eight years after her graduation it started to itch again; she had to start drawing again! Under the name PUIKEPRENT, she tried new things as an illustrator.
Nowadays Esther largely makes her illustrations digitally. Because of her artisanal education, she is always looking for the right texture and a hand-painted feeling. Her prints are atmospheric, with an eye for detail, often with a wink.
