GANADOR DEL NATIONAL BOOK AWARDEl libro icónico de Patti Smith, en el que cuenta su relación con Robert Mapplethorpe: un homenaje a la amistad cuyas páginas cargadas de vitalidad y humor nos devuelven el sabor de un Nueva York donde casi todo era posible.
UNO DE LOS MEJORES LIBROS DE LOS ÚLTIMOS 25 AÑOS SEGÚN AMAZON
«Éramos unos niños es el libro que más me ha influenciado. Es un libro increíble y una cápsula del tiempo de cuando la creatividad estaba surgiendo de verdad». -Dua Lipa
Fue el verano en que murió Coltrane. [ ] Los hippies alzaron sus brazos vacíos y China hizo detonar la bomba de hidrógeno. Jimi Hendrix prendió fuego a su guitarra en Monterrey. [...] Fue el verano del amor. Y en aquel clima cambiante e inhóspito, un encuentro casual cambió el curso de mi vida. Fue el verano en que conocí a Robert Mapplethorpe. Sucedió en el mes de julio de 1967 y eran unos niños, pero a partir de entonces Patti Smith y Robert Mapplethorpe sellaron una amistad que solo acabaría con la muerte del gran fotógrafo, en 1989. De eso habla este espléndido libro de memorias, ganador del National Book Award, de la vida en común de dos artistas, los dos entusiastas y apasionados, que cruzaron a grandes pasos la periferia de Nueva York para llegar hasta el centro neurálgico del nuevo arte. Fue así como acabaron instalándose en el hotel Chelsea y se convirtieron en los protagonistas de un mundo hoy ya desaparecido donde reinaban Allen Ginsberg, Andy Warhol y sus chicos, y se creaban las grandes bandas de música que marcaron los últimos años del siglo XX, mientras el sida hacía estragos. Lejos de ser un libro triste y nostálgico, Éramos unos niños constituye un homenaje a la amistad sin trabas, y sus páginas, cargadas de vitalidad y humor, nos devuelven el sabor de esa gran ciudad donde hubo un tiempo en que casi todo era posible. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION NATIONAL BOOK AWARD WINNER
Patti Smith's iconic book, in which she recounts her relationship with Robert Mapplethorpe: a tribute to friendship whose pages, filled with vitality and humor, bring back the flavor of a New York where almost anything was possible.
ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE LAST 25 YEARS ACCORDING TO AMAZON
"Just Kids is the book that has influenced me the most. It's an incredible book and a time capsule of when creativity was truly emerging." - Dua Lipa
It was the summer Coltrane died. [ ] The hippies raised their empty arms and China detonated the hydrogen bomb. Jimi Hendrix set his guitar on fire in Monterey. [...] It was the summer of love. And in that changing and inhospitable climate, a chance encounter changed the course of my life. It was the summer I met Robert Mapplethorpe. It happened in July 1967, and they were just kids, but from then on, Patti Smith and Robert Mapplethorpe sealed a friendship that would only end with the death of the great photographer in 1989. This splendid memoir, winner of the National Book Award, talks about the shared life of two artists, both enthusiastic and passionate, who crossed the periphery of New York in great strides to reach the nerve center of new art. This is how they ended up settling in the Chelsea Hotel and became protagonists of a now vanished world where Allen Ginsberg, Andy Warhol and his entourage reigned, and the great bands that marked the last years of the XX century were created, while AIDS wreaked havoc. Far from being a sad and nostalgic book, Just Kids is a tribute to unrestrained friendship, and its pages, filled with vitality and humor, bring back the flavor of that great city where there was a time when almost anything was possible.

Gorgeous book
Format: Board book
This is one of our favorite books. The illustrations are stunning. It's a total work of art! And the story about changing seasons is lovely. I like that it's a quick read but that there's more than a word or two per page. My 13-month old really loves this book, and because I love it so much too, I always encourage her to bring it over for a read!

beautiful illustrations
Format: Board book
The story is nice, but the real magic is in the illustrations. As a parent, I adore reading this book just for the illustrations; each page is a work of art. Most of the story is about winter, so we are reading it a great deal now (December) to discuss wildlife and how they prepare for winter.
