«La evolución de Calpurnia Tate» is the coming-of-age novel by Jacqueline Kelly, published by Rocabolsillo in paperback (272 pages, in Spanish).
In the summer of 1899, in Texas, eleven-year-old Calpurnia Tate prefers nature and reading to the chores her mother imposes on her. Little by little she earns her grandfather's trust, helps with his observations of the environment, discovers Darwin and the species, and sees how strange her older brothers become when they fall in love.
First installment of the «Calpurnia Tate» series and translation by Isabel Margelí Ballo; the English original was published in 2009.
For young readers from about twelve years old, especially if they enjoy stories set in nature and scientific discovery.
Jacqueline Kelly is a New Zealand-born American writer. Her books are popular with both children and adults.
