About the book:

Little Thumb tells of the abandonment that seven brothers suffer from their parents without caring about the fate that awaits them. This story features dark events such as the death of the ogre's daughters and a very unexpected ending. It is a classic story written by Charles Perrault that has accompanied children and adults for many years, but was transformed by Eva Melgarejo to accompany her illustrations and tell a different story.

Una mujer les abrió
Allí dejaron abandonados a los niños.
