JUGUETE EN MÉXICO, EL

"This volume is a little gem that rescues, sorted into thematic series, a set of photographs of toys from the Museo La Esquina (also called Museo del Juguete Popular Mexicano) in San Miguel Allende (Guanajuato). An exciting foreword by Elena Poniatowska and a clairvoyant essay of Erik Castle accompany the images, witnesses of a past that seller of fruit Angélica Tijerina decided to preserve from oblivion dignifying the inspiring work of the craftsmen. The wood horses, yo-yos and Ragdolls, among other luminous devices, serves as an excuse to reflect on our childhood, the passage of time and the relationship between culture, play and learning.".
