Synopsis

En este clásico moderno, galardonado con la medalla Caldecott, un niño y su madre se ven obligados a dejar su apartamento por la seguridad de un albergue durante una noche de disturbios.
In this Spanish language edition of a modern classic, Eve Bunting's heartfelt story and David Diaz's dramatic illustrations create a compelling child's-eye view of urban violence. A young boy and his mother are forced to flee their apartment during a night of rioting in Los Angeles. Fires and looting force neighbors--who have always avoided one another--to come together in the face of danger and concern for their missing pets. David Diaz was awarded the Caldecott Medal for his bold acrylic paint and photo-collage illustrations.
