About this book

Español

Alma y la isla

Alma ha llegado del mar, y Otto no entiende su idioma. Desde que ella vive en su casa —ocupando su habitación—, Otto se siente desplazado, pues la atención de sus padres, su abuela y sus hermanos se centra ahora en la recién llegada. Pero poco a poco, ambos niños descubren que la amistad puede crecer más allá de las palabras y la distancia. Gracias a un misterioso amuleto, Otto comenzará a comprender la verdadera historia de Almaz Sebhat, la niña que vino del mar, en esta tierna historia sobre migración, familia y lazos inesperados.

English

Alma and the Island

Alma has arrived from the sea, and Otto doesn't understand her language. Since she came to live in his home—taking over his room—Otto feels pushed aside as his parents, grandmother, and siblings turn all their attention to the newcomer. But little by little, the two children discover that friendship can grow beyond words and distance. Thanks to a mysterious amulet, Otto begins to understand the true story of Almaz Sebhat, the girl who came from the sea, in this tender tale about migration, family, and unexpected bonds.
