Los espejos de Anclara es el poemario ganador del Premio Hispanoamericano de Poesia para Ninos 2008. Relata, desde la perspectiva de la infancia, la fantasia de una nina que se mira al espejo e imagina que sus ojos son dos puertas a traves de las cuales puede entrar para descubrir lo que esta encerrado en su interior: suenos, miedos, dolores, alegrias y anhelos. Es un libro que se desarrolla en el limite entre la realidad y la fantasia y los conductos por los cuales estas dos se comunican.

In this Spanish language translation, the life and work of Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross, is told in graphic novel format.
