La Flor Más Grande Del Mundo

La Flor Más Grande Del Mundo "The biggest flower in the world" What if the lecture of children aimed stories were mandatory for grown-ups? Would we be really be capable of learning what we’ve been teaching since so long ago? The biggest flower in the World is a beautiful story for children and grown-ups, written by Jose Saramago. A tale of rare beauty, full of symbols and enigmas, aimed for a childhood that grows in a World where ambition seems to replace the lack of ideals. And also for the men and women that seem to have forgotten the value of small things in life and respect towards our environment. User: Pantufas Nov 23, 2011 12:37 PM
