Suzy empieza el primer grado, pero este año es distinto: su padre ha sido enviado a servir en la selva de Vietnam. Mientras pasan las estaciones, Suzy espera sus postales, imagina ese lugar lejano que él describe e intenta comprender qué significa la guerra. Cuando las postales dejan de llegar, su preocupación crece: ¿volverá su padre a casa? Inspirado en la infancia de la propia Suzanne Collins, este conmovedor álbum ilustrado retrata con delicadeza el miedo, la confusión y la esperanza de una niña separada de su padre.

English Translation

Year of the Jungle

Suzy is starting first grade, but this year is different: her father has been sent to serve in the jungles of Vietnam. As the seasons pass, Suzy waits for his postcards, imagining the faraway place he describes and trying to understand what war means. When the postcards stop arriving, her worry grows—will her father ever come home? Drawn from Suzanne Collins's own childhood, this moving picture book gently portrays the fear, confusion, and hope of a child in a military family separated from a parent.
