Illustrated by Mauricio Mora
A Spanish/English Story for Young Readers
This is the story of one boy’s passage from childhood to adolescence. In
a remote sierran mountain village called San Melitón, ten-year-old Juan
is already a talented potter and sculptor. When he is given the
opportunity to deliver the invitation to his community’s fiesta to the
neighboring village of San Marcos, he is anxious to take on the challenge.
However, he discovers the journey to be more difficult than he
anticipated, as he and his traveling companion and pet, Pancha the goat,
are faced with a steep, strenuous climb, harsh weather conditions, and a
confrontation with a crazy mountain hermit. |
