Cuentos de la selva

Adéntrate en una selva vibrante llena de animales y algún ser humano en esta clásica colección de ocho cuentos del autor uruguayo Horacio Quiroga. Los jóvenes lectores se divertirán descubriendo cómo los yacarés se ingenian para salvar su río frente a los cazadores, por qué los flamencos se sostienen sobre una pata, y se emocionarán con la historia del pequeño coatí que renuncia a su libertad por vivir con unos niños, y la tortuga que salva la vida de un hombre cargándolo en su caparazón. Con humor, aventura y lecciones sobre la naturaleza y la solidaridad, estos cuentos celebran la maravilla del mundo salvaje.

South American Jungle Tales

Step into a vibrant jungle filled with wild creatures and the occasional human visitor in this classic collection of eight tales by Uruguayan author Horacio Quiroga. Young readers will laugh at how clever alligators outwit hunters to save their river, discover why flamingos stand on one leg, and be moved by the story of a small coati who gives up its freedom to live with children, and a turtle who saves a man's life by carrying him on its shell. Blending humor, adventure, and heartfelt lessons about nature and solidarity, these beloved stories celebrate the wonder of the wild.
