Who is the freest person you know?
If you were certain that nobody was ever going to find out, would you misbehave?
Can we all do whatever we want at the same time?
What do you think?
Whatever You Want is a serious and seriously fun invitation to think about freedom.
Fourteen illustrated scenes accompanied by more than 100 carefully crafted questions to provoke deep, open reflection without prefabricated answers.
Presented in box format (though it is available in book format as well), it invites readers aged 8 and up to explore questions such as:
Does being free mean being able to do whatever we want?
Is there a difference between always obeying and being a slave?
Can we be happy without being free?
Are we slaves to something or someone?
Why do we want freedom?
Through the dialogue sparked by the images, each reader-player can construct their own definition of freedom, developing critical thinking and a visual and conceptual map of life in society, norms, responsibility, and limits.
Contents
14 illustrated sheets with more than 100 questions to encourage reflection, 3 sheets for creating and asking questions, a short guide for children and adults, a Wonder Ponder themed poster (A3), as well as an exploration method with suggestions for use.
Is feeling free the same as being free? Choices, rules, and responsibility come into play in a playful proposal that invites readers to put themselves in the shoes of its characters. El Cultural, El Mundo
It unsettles, opens up options, makes you doubt and reflect. A book that encourages you to be brave and say, “Let’s think about it.” Donde viven los libros
Like a flashlight that illuminates what was always there but we didn’t see. The authors invite us to observe… and they succeed. Librojuegos
