    El 27 de mayo de 1937, en plena guerra civil española, 456 niños y niñas de familias republicanas embarcaron en el trasatlántico Mexique, que partió de Burdeos hacia México. Se esperaba que permanecieran solo unos meses, pero la derrota republicana y el estallido de la Segunda Guerra Mundial convirtieron su viaje en un exilio permanente. Conocidos como los «niños de Morelia», muchos nunca regresaron a España, y quienes lo hicieron años después encontraron una tierra, una familia y un paisaje que ya no reconocían. Una conmovedora historia real sobre la infancia, el desarraigo y la memoria.

    English Translation

    Mexique

    On May 27, 1937, amid Spain's civil war, 456 children of Republican families boarded the ocean liner Mexique in Bordeaux, sailing toward Mexico. Meant to stay only a few months, the young evacuees—later known as the 'children of Morelia'—became permanent exiles when the Republican defeat and the outbreak of World War II closed the door home. Decades later, the few who returned found a homeland, family, and landscapes they no longer recognized. This poignant picture book recounts one of history's most moving stories of childhood displacement and resilience.
