ZAGREB, April 8, 2019 – The association “Domino” has published Croatian translations of two picture books that deal with the topic of same-sex families by American author Lawrence Schimel, who writes both in Spanish and English, and instead of a classical book launch, it will organise two workshops on different types of families and the importance of LGBTQ literature for children.
The two picture books depict everyday situations from the lives of children and their pets in same-sex families.
The picture books, entitled “Pronto por la manana” (Rano ujutro, Early in the Morning) and “No es hora de jugar” (Ovo nije vrijeme za igru, It’s Not Playtime), were translated from Spanish into Croatian by Nikolina Židek, while the illustrations were made by Latvian author Elina Braslina.
The books will be presented at two workshops for parents and children, to be held in Zagreb’s “S.S. Kranjčevic” and “Bogdan Ogrizović” libraries.
