Spanish Description

The Water Maps

En un poblado del desierto, las N'Wone —mujeres-agua— son guardianas esenciales que desde niñas aprenden a escucharlo todo, desde el aleteo de los cuervos de pico blanco hasta el susurro de los riachuelos subterráneos. Cuando la última N'Wone muere antes de tiempo, su hija Nanga, de solo ocho años, debe ocupar su lugar, aunque todos creen que es demasiado joven. Mientras envidia la libertad de su hermano Rai, el agua del pozo se vuelve cada vez más salada, y solo una verdadera mujer-agua puede hallar la solución antes de que sea tarde.

About the Book

In a desert village, the N'Wone—water-women—are essential guardians who learn from childhood to listen to everything, from the flap of white-beaked crows to the whisper of underground streams. When the last N'Wone dies before her time, her eight-year-old daughter Nanga must take her place, even though everyone believes she is too young. As she envies her brother Rai's freedom from such responsibility, the village well grows saltier each day, and only a true water-woman can find the answer before it's too late.
