Hace mucho tiempo, en la tierra de los kariña, el Jefe del Cielo advirtió que una gran lluvia cubriría la tierra, pero su pueblo no le creyó. Solo cuatro guerreros hicieron caso a la profecía y construyeron una gran canoa, llenándola de animales y semillas de todas las plantas. Al sobrevivir las lluvias, debieron crear su mundo de nuevo. Basada en la mitología caribe, esta hermosa historia de origen acerca a los jóvenes lectores la sabiduría indígena ancestral, explorando temas de fe, valentía y renovación.

English Translation

The Great Canoe

Long ago, in the land of the Kariña people, the Sky Chief warned that a great flood would cover the earth—but few believed him. Only four brave warriors heeded his warning and built an enormous canoe, filling it with animals and seeds from every plant. When the rains came and the waters rose, these warriors survived, and afterward faced the task of remaking their world. Rooted in Carib mythology, this beautifully told origin story brings ancient Indigenous wisdom to young readers, exploring themes of belief, courage, and renewal.
