Para los fanáticos de El camioncito azul, El camión rojo y La pequeña locomotora que sí pudo, llega esta oda en verso a un colorido autobús de América del Sur y a la esencia colectiva de su gente.
Este alegre libro-álbum rimado es el primer libro de la autora, fue ilustrado por la estimada creadora de Luces nocturnas e Hicotea, y acompaña al icónico bus, o chiva, en su recorrido por las escarpadas montañas de los Andes, celebrando la rica cultura y el exuberante paisaje de Colombia que la película Encanto, de Disney, presentó de manera tan espléndida.
Praise for ¡Me llamo la Chiva!
"This picture book is a great read-along and even contains a short glossary in the back, in case readers are not familiar with some of the terms for foods or other regional words. This book has been translated into Spanish and adapted in rhyme, making it a delight in both languages." —Booklist
