El elefante Liberto se siente muy feliz por ser el protagonista absoluto de este libro y quiere disfrutar al máximo de ello. Saltando, bailando, viajando… y jugando entre las páginas del libro. Hasta que su curiosidad le lleva a mirar qué ocurre en la última página y a darse cuenta de que, cuando lleguemos a esa página, será el final y se acabará la diversión.
Liberto tiene que pensar algo rápidamente para conseguir cambiar eso antes de que terminemos el cuento.

El libro contiene al final una imagen troquelada de Liberto para poder sacarle del libro y llevarle contigo a cualquier parte y que, de esa forma, no pare nunca la diversión. Liberto irá contigo a todas partes.

El león de la página de arriba está muy satisfecho con la vida placentera que lleva desde allí. En cambio los animales de la página de abajo no están tan contentos.

Las cosas van a cambiar para todos los personajes. Un libro muy original con un gran sentido del humor. Risas para los más pequeños y una sutil ironía para los mayores. Arriba. Abajo. Un libro que te invita a girarlo y a jugar con el espacio. Una sencilla historia que nos demuestra que es posible cambiar las cosas, incluso se les puede dar la vuelta. Un cuento que nos invita a ponernos en la situación de los demás para comprenderlos.
