Una Postal Desde Japón (a Postcard from Japan)

Elements of magical realism turn a grandmother/grandson day of fishing into an extraordinary experience. When this duo casts out their lines, they catch some fish and a snapping turtle.

The young boy learns that life is an adventure filled with the magic of possibility.

After getting a postcard from their friend Jack in Australia, twins Carlos and Camila magically travel to visit their new friend and his country. Includes a page for caregivers and teachers that suggests guiding questions to help aid in reading comprehension.
