Luces de feria (Fairground Lights)

Por Fran Nuño y Enrique Quevedo

Winner at the 2013 Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards. Visit this fair full of magic, where a simple movement of the hand can set in motion all the rides.

Once upon a time, my dad took me to a very special fair a long, long way from home. As soon as we arrived, he asked me to wave my hands in the air like a magician so that the lights would turn on or off as I pleased.

“It’s amazing!” I shouted with joy.

Today my dad has taken me to the fair, and you can't imagine how excited I am. It is a magical place, full of lights, colors, music and, above all, fun! However, this fair has something special that makes it different from the others... A witch has hung up her broom to become the driver of a flying train, a snow-capped Helter Skelter, and Bumper Cars that can zoom off to wherever the driver wants and ride through the venue… This fair seems to have come to life!

Ganador de los Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards en 2013. Visita esta feria llena de magia, en donde un simple movimiento de mano pone en marcha todas las atracciones.

Una vez, mi padre me llevó a una feria muy especial, muy lejos de casa. Nada más llegar, me pidió que moviera mis manos como un mago para que las luces se encendieran o apagaran a mi antojo.

—¡Es fantástico! —grité emocionado.

Hoy papá me ha llevado a la feria, y no os podéis imaginar qué ilusión me hace. La feria es un lugar mágico, lleno de luces, colores, música y, sobre todo, ¡diversión! Sin embargo, esta feria tiene algo especial… Una bruja ha colgado su escoba para ser maquinista de un tren volador, montañas rusas que parecen auténticas montañas cubiertas de nieve, autos de choque que salen de la pista al antojo del conductor y se pasean por el recinto… ¡Esta feria parece haber cobrado vida!
