Death is a difficult concept for young children to understand and for adults to explain. The last crow explains it in an affectionate way, as one of life’s natural processes: an irreversible, universal and unavoidable ending for everyone. Pablo Albo tackles the different stages, affectively, of facing up to the loss of someone: mourning, acceptance and, finally, the beautiful legacy of the memories achieved without losing the narrative tension, emotion and evocative spaces. This way, it helps the youngest to come to terms with death in a useful way, to reflect on life and to value all the good times.
On a parallel and symbolically, the story has a bearing on the importance of transmitting knowledge as a key role in maturing and advancing towards emotional growth.
These concepts and values are made stronger through the interesting perspectives and fantastic pictorial compositions by Miguel Ángel Díez who has created for this album, through connotations, anthropomorphically, very elaborate characters.
