Estrelas, the new book by Júlio Emílio Braz, illustrated by Clara Zúñiga, is a children's book that talks about the fear of the dark. The father-son relationship here is important because it is up to the adult to support childhood fears. The fear of the dark, as we know, is linked to the fear of the unknown, of what cannot be seen. This ancestral fear is hidden deep within what shapes us as human beings and, in the view of a child, we are taken to a new point of view, to take something good out of this situation and learn from our fears. We see that the dark is not so dark, because we have our protectors in the stars.
