Donald Crews - 1996-09-20 (publicado por primera vez en 1978)
Calificación de Goodreads
In powerful words and vibrant illustrations, Donald Crews evokes the essence of inexorably rolling wheels, so that even a child not lucky enough to have counted freight cars will feel he has watched a freight train passing. A book truly for the youngest child -- and for every one of us who has been that child.

Non-fiction: this is an extraordinary bio of Jean-Michel Basquiat. Kids bios often stink (sorry!) but Radiant Child is really About something: family, creativity and most of all mental illness. And the art is literally made from the places in the book.      fuente

@bikelanesplease @stevevance “The Migraine Brain” and “Heal Your Headache” are useful books. The latter advocates for complete cessation of medication for a month which is pretty extreme, but the diet helped me identify food triggers.      fuente

@BigZaphod @radiocolin Triggers are different for everyone but those are two very common ones. There are a few books that will give some understanding- one I remember is called Heal Your Headache by a guy at John’s Hopkins.      fuente
