Description

Dos primos, uno en los Estados Unidos y otro en México, descubren que sus vidas no son tan diferentes en este encantador libro del galardonado autor e ilustrador Duncan Tonatiuh. ¡Mención de Honor del Premio Pura Belpré al Ilustrador!

"Me acaba de llegar una carta de mi primo. Yo vivo en Estados Unidos y él en México, de donde es mi familia. ¡Tal vez algún día nos conozcamos!"

Por medio de cartas, dos primos se dan cuenta de que tienen más en común de lo que sugieren las fronteras que hay en sus vidas y en sus comunidades. A través de su arte y su historia, Duncan Tonatiuh les presenta a los lectores jóvenes una idea muy oportuna: que la comunidad es más grande que solo vecindarios y escuelas.
