This book is a dream I have a long time ago. It's a children's book and wish to contribute to our culture, thus increasing the list of Portuguese writers. Secondary to my professional life, I tell stories every day. Sometimes fail me stories in order to meet the children and I find myself often invent them, after writing decided to edit them. After a few years to tell stories and some courage, the dream became a reality. After to send my work to some publishers, there was a publisher who gave...
I am Educator of Childhood and love telling stories!
Who has children knows that children love stories and ask again and again for adults telling "the story".
As a professional, I would like to see more Portuguese authors with opportunity to edit and contribute to our culture ... a country without culture, is indeed a poorer country.
Hear stories is as enjoyable event that arouses the interest of people in all ages.
Children's literature is a path that leads the child to develop imagination, emotions and feelings of pleasurable and meaningful way.
This is a children's book entitled "The Elephant wanted to fly."
To get the elephant fly, I need your precious help.
I count on your support in this battle.
About the author
Cristina Rodrigues, got 36 years.
I am from the city of Portimão and the turn of the century also changed the air, I headed to the capital behind dreams and waiting for find more opportunities.
I graduated in Childhood Education in 2004 and since then I spread the magic of stories with the little ones.
At this time, I dedicate myself to writing stories and frequency of the Masters in Early Intervention.
My motivation is to get to the imagination of the children of our country and thus to contribute to the literary development in childhood.

Since very little I write texts for theater "home" and this was reflected later in my career.
Budget and due dates
The selling price to the book of the public "Elephant Who Wanted to Fly" will be PVP 12.50 per copy.
My commitment to the publisher is to acquire more than 150 copies for the same price.
As you can imagine, it is not economically possible for me to invest in this dream. Still, I would try.
I will have to pay 5% commission (+ IVA) to PPL platform to achieve the goal. It does not reach, the funds will be returned by PPL platform, who contributed some subject.
The publication of the book depends directly on the date on which it reaches the goal and so to sign the contract with the publisher, is expected to be published between 4-6 months. I will only sign the contract after gathering the necessary amount.
Reinforcing the idea that it does not reach the amount, this platform follows an ideology "all or nothing" and will be returned to all the values that have provided supporters, but will not let that happen do you? I count on you all!
On the other hand, if the value of the fund exceeds the target I am happy to be able to donate on behalf of us all to an institution for needy children, to help the same and so we'll all be proud.
