14 Vacas para América
Nueve meses después de los ataques del 11 de septiembre, un diplomático estadounidense se encuentra en una aldea remota del oeste de Kenia, rodeado por cientos de personas masái. Se han reunido para ofrecer un regalo inesperado y extraordinario a un pueblo estadounidense en duelo: catorce vacas, lo más valioso que poseen los masái. Basado en la historia real narrada por Wilson Kimeli Naiyomah e ilustrado con las bellísimas pinturas de Thomas Gonzalez, este éxito de ventas del New York Times, escrito por Carmen Agra Deedy, celebra la generosidad y la amistad que cruzan fronteras y culturas.
