Reviews

[Maria Victoria Sanchez · Rating 5 out of 5]

Este es uno de mis libros favoritos. Es una hermosa historia sobre un hombre al que no le gustaba la oscuridad.

[Denise Blumenfeld · Rating 3 out of 5]

Lindo cuento que resuena a relato folklórico acerca de cómo se creó el cielo estrellado en un pueblo que temía a la noche oscura y negra

[Anne Smith · Rating 3 out of 5]

Originally written in Spanish, this book tells how the night sky became lit by the stars and moon.

Really liked this story, an interpretation of how the stars and moon came to be.
