Camilo the Owl that Was Scared of the Darkness

Camilo is an owl who is afraid of the dark, both with his eyes open and closed. That is why he does not go out with his parents or friends at night. And that is also why he can’t fall asleep. Darkness scares him! His parents thought that he was like a wild owl, one of those who sleep at night, but when they realized that it was that Camilo was afraid of the dark, then they decided, as a family, to discover the beauty that can only be created and seen in the dark. This book is an invitation to family dialogue and to believe that there is beauty even in the darkest moments of life. Camilo es un Búho que le teme a la oscuridad con los ojos abiertos y con los ojos cerrados. Es por eso que no sale con sus padres, ni con sus amigos en las noches, y es por eso que tampoco logra conciliar el sueño. ¡La oscuridad lo espanta! Sus padres creían que era un búho campestre, de esos que duermen en la noche, pero al comprender que no era así, se propusieron en familia descubrir la belleza que solo se ve y se crea en la oscuridad. Un libro que invita al diálogo familiar y a creer que, aún en los momentos más oscuros de la vida, hay belleza.

Theoretical considerations on development of wakefulness and on its relation to consciousness are included and provide a vigorous impulse to go beyond present criteria and classifications. Age changes are the core of studies on development: a section of the book examines old ...

Infants and children spend one- to two-thirds of their life asleep.

There are profound changes in sleep and circadian rhythm during growth and maturation. Sleep is particularly important in children, due to
