Book Description
for Napi Goes to the Mountain by Antonio Ramirez and Domi
From the Publisher
When their father disappears one day, Napí and her little brother Niclé decide to leave their village to find him. They set off up river on a raft. As they go, their search assumes a magical quality, becoming a journey of self-discovery. Turtles carry the raft on their backs; the children are transformed into deer; and other animals offer help and advice. Finally, an armadillo tells them that if they return home, they will find a big surprise awaiting them! Featuring award-winning Domi’s richly evocative art, Napi to the Mountain has the imaginative interest and timeless appeal of the Mexican folk culture that inspired it.
