Spain - "Oye ... buenos días", supportive and educational book of "Misiones Salesianas" in harmony with values ​​of Don Bosco

28 June 2019

(ANS - Madrid) - A solidarity book that arises almost by chance, through the messages of encouragement that a father left to his son every day so that the boy could look at them during school recess or at any other time of day. This book was born as the Salesian "good morning", that message that Salesians from around the world bring to the children of their schools, institutes, centers or oratories. It is a short message, but it helps to raise one's eyes to God, a message that encourages and gives strength. The book on solidarity has as its protagonist the little Adael who started reading the messages as: "(have a) happy day, smile, have fun, thank, learn, listen, share ..." and he learned to keep them all like little treasures.

The book's first page presents the child's face with six words, six messages, so profound and so current: "Say please", "Forgive", "Say thank you", "Listen, learn, share", "Take advantage", "smile". In a society that lives fast, always on the run, without a moment to enjoy a small word, a smile, a gesture that speaks of forgiveness, at least this small book invites children to learn the fundamental values ​​for coexistence.

The great thing about this book is that when Adael grows up and the positive messages of values and attitudes have changed, it begins to design the things that father and son had shared, hobbies, pastimes and dreams. And its illustrations were part of a message and a lifestyle.

The result of this daily hobby of drawing in the morning and transmitting positive messages and values ​​in line with the Salesian charism is a book designed for children, but also for adolescents and young people, entitled: "Oye ... buenos días" (Hey .....good morning). It is a work of Pablo Souto, member of the Communication and Marketing Department of "Misiones Salesianas", the Salesian Mission Office of Madrid.

More than 70 pages to read and color, with a small selection of all the drawings made in recent years. A book that contains a different "good morning" for each day and with positive messages applicable at school, at home, with friends or in the family.

The proceeds from the sale of this book, which can be purchased on the Misiones Salesianas website, will be donated to Salesians in 134 countries on five continents, to offer quality education and to achieve the integral development of children and young people, especially the most disadvantaged.
