A very small and very curious boy, a giant, two dolls and three heroes: stories that José Martí wrote for the children of America.
In 1889, José Martí wrote a magazine for the children of America: La Edad de Oro (The Golden Age). This book tells four of its stories. Meñique is so small that he fits inside one of his father's boots, but he wants to know everything, and one day a king offers his daughter to the man who can cut down an enchanted oak. Bebé receives a very expensive present, Piedad turns eight, and at the end Martí tells the lives of Bolívar, Hidalgo and San Martín, three men who fought for the freedom of America.
