«Quina Classe! Òscar, el tímid» is a children's book by Philippe Bertrand, published by Naturart, S.A. (Blume) in hardback (24 pages, in Catalan).
Òscar arrives at school with his head down, without greeting anyone, and hides in a corner of the classroom or the playground. When the teacher notices his new green jumper, he becomes the centre of attention for everyone. With humour and colour, the book shows how hard it is to be shy and the importance of acceptance.
It belongs to the «Quina classe» series, aimed at the youngest. First edition published on 30 May 2008.
Recommended for young children starting to read and for working on shyness and acceptance in the classroom.
Philippe Bertrand (1663–1724) was a French sculptor of the late 17th and early 18th century. He received commissions for sculptures for both the Château de Marly and Versailles. In November, 1701, he was made a full member of the Académie de peinture et de sculpture upon the display of a royal commission of 1700, his small bronze of the Rape of Helen, a svelte composition of three figures with a debt to Giambologna's Rape of a Sabine Woman. He was known for sculpting flowing, graceful, and even flying figures, particularly in his bronzes.
