Description

A long time ago, Kaputano, dweller of the heavens, warned that a great rain was coming. He urged the Kariñas to help him build a canoe and gather seeds and animals, but only four couples agreed to help, as the rest didn’t listen to him. Soon, the rains covered even the tallest trees. This is a traditional story by the indigenous Kariña people in Venezuela, illustrated by Gloria Calderón who masterfully depicts their landscapes, animals and ways of living.


 


Hace muchísimo tiempo llegó a la tierra de los Kariñas, Kaputano, el Morador del Cielo, para avisarles que el mundo se cubrería de agua. Una leyenda del diluvio en las tierras americanas, que muestra una cultura indígena y la belleza de su región.
