¡No quiero estar en silencio!
By Laura Ellen Anderson

Pero hay lugares en los que la gente se empeña en que guarde silencio.

Laura Ellen Anderson, autora del éxito de ventas ¡No quiero el cabello rizado!, nos presenta una divertida historia sobre la necesidad del silencio y de escuchar en estos tiempos de ruido y de prisa.--Publisher
