Since their meeting, Squirrel couldn’t get him off her mind. When she thought about him, it was all cloudy, she lost her voice, she had butterflies in her tummy… Her secret went out to the far reaches of the woods and, although many thought it was madness, when autumn came…

Javier Sobrino presents us with an endearing and amazing love story in which differences are not an impediment. Through the animals of the forest, the author manages to connect immediately with the youngest readers. But the fact is that Un secreto del bosque uses a universal language, that of affection, to talk to the little ones about love and how to assume their feelings.
For her part, Elena Odriozola, winner of the 2nd Prize for Best Illustrated Book for La princesa que bostezaba a todas horas, offers us a new illustration style with a great evocative, subtle and delicate power that perfectly matches the poetics of the text. An album without age to talk and to be talked about love.
