Long Nails

Original title: Uñas largas

By Diana Bon · Illustrated by Aitana Botet

Clever, sporty, funny… and facing one very big dilemma: to cut her nails or not?

Etna is clever, sporty and football-mad, and she has made one firm decision: nobody will EVER cut her nails. Not her parents, not her grandparents… until her neighbour Berta tells her what happened the day her toenail popped the ball right in front of goal. Written by Diana Bon and brightly illustrated by Aitana Botet, Long Nails turns an everyday family battle into a funny story about thinking things through and growing up, with a Halloween twist at the end.

Mysteries of Humanity

Original title: Misterios de la humanidad

Written and illustrated by Yesenia Barrera

From the Yeti to crystal skulls: the world's greatest enigmas, explored with an open mind.

Throughout history, humanity has witnessed events and phenomena that defy explanation: creatures described by those who swear they have seen them, constructions that seem to challenge logic, and objects, traces and places that still raise more questions than answers. From the Yeti of the Himalayas to the crystal skulls, each chapter sets the legend alongside what science has found, inviting readers to explore the unexplained with curiosity and a critical eye. Written and illustrated by Yesenia Barrera, with detailed artwork, a field-notebook look and a map locating every mystery.

A little light inside that makes Pau feel more, and understand more.

Original title: Rufino viaja en submarino

By Mencía Arroyo · Illustrated by Chiara Boffi

A stowaway, a coral reef in danger and a whale who simply didn't know.

When Rufino's mum, a marine researcher, is sent on an underwater expedition, he sneaks aboard the submarine as a stowaway. On the ocean floor he finds a beautiful coral reef in danger: a giant sperm whale keeps crashing into it, not realising that coral is alive. With a seahorse, a pufferfish, a clever squid and a wall of brave octopuses, Rufino helps protect the reef, until the whale understands why it matters. A rhyming undersea adventure by Mencía Arroyo, illustrated by Chiara Boffi, about caring for the ocean and solving conflicts through understanding.

The Steadfast Tin Soldier

Original title: El soldadito de plomo

Written and illustrated by Ros Cifuentes

Andersen's bravest toy, and a love that not even fire can break.

A one-legged tin soldier falls in love with a ballerina who lives in a paper castle. When a gust of wind blows him out of the window, he sails a paper boat through gutters and sewers, is swallowed by a fish and finds his way home. Author-illustrator Rosario Cifuentes keeps Andersen's bittersweet ending but turns it into a tender image of everlasting love. Rich, textured digital painting, bold cinematic framing and a heart motif that runs from the first page to the last.

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

Original title: El maravilloso Mago de Oz

By L. Frank Baum · Illustrated by Elizabeta Keci

Oz as you've never seen it: atmospheric black-and-white art in the engraving tradition.

A cyclone carries Dorothy from Kansas to the Land of Oz, where she sets off with the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman and the Cowardly Lion to find the Wizard. Elizabeta Keci's black-and-white illustrations, built from fine cross-hatching and soft tonal light, recall the great engraved editions of the past while feeling strikingly contemporary. From the grey storm over Kansas to the lush gardens of Oz, they bring atmosphere and depth to any translation of Baum's classic.

There's Something in My Chest

Original title: Tengo algo en el pecho

By Lucía Auñón · Illustrated by Francesca Corso

A thousand emotions fit inside a chest, and every one of them matters.

Inside our chest there is room for a thousand different emotions: some shine like the sun, others feel like a rainy day. Through poetic, first-person verses, young readers discover that joy, sadness, fear and surprise all live inside them, and that every emotion, even the ones we don't like very much, helps us understand ourselves better. Italian illustrator Francesca Corso, selected for the Bologna Children's Book Fair's "Italian Excellence" exhibition, brings each feeling to life with rich, textured artwork.
