    T he Secret F ootprints

    En una isla no muy lejana vive una tribu escondida de criaturas llamadas ciguapas, que habitan frescas cuevas azules bajo el mar y solo salen de noche en busca de alimento. Sus pies apuntan hacia atrás, por lo que nadie puede seguir sus huellas... hasta que una ciguapa curiosa llamada Guapa, tentada por mangos y pastelitos, pone en riesgo el secreto de su pueblo. La galardonada autora Julia Alvarez recrea esta cautivadora leyenda dominicana, acompañada por las hermosas ilustraciones de Fabian Negrin, en un relato inolvidable para los jóvenes lectores.

    About the Book

    On a far-off island, a hidden tribe of creatures called ciguapas lives in cool blue caves beneath the sea, venturing onto land only at night to search for food. Their feet point backward, so no one can ever trace their steps—until one curious ciguapa named Guapa, tempted by mangoes and pastries, risks revealing her people's secret. Award-winning author Julia Alvarez retells this enchanting Dominican legend with vivid imagination, beautifully complemented by Fabian Negrin's evocative illustrations, in a tale young readers will long remember.
