Twelve fishermen / Doce pescadores
Franco Vaccarini · illustrated by Vanina Starkoff
Bilingual Book Walk Story
Fulcamil, a Mapuche child, insists every day that he wants to go fishing with his father and the other men. When will they let him join the group of twelve fishermen? The sea does not frighten him; he is sure he can take care of himself—or so he thinks. Luckily, beneath the waves, Pincoya, the sea goddess, keeps an eye on him.
