Beto y Bella son dos guacamayas del Amazonas que increíblemente han llegado a vivir al sur de Chile. ¿Cómo llegaron a este lugar? ¿Por qué dejaron atrás la selva? ¿Cómo fueron recibidos por los animales chilenos? Una conmovedora historia que relata la adversidad, la incertidumbre y los sueños de los migrantes, y cómo a través de la empatía se pueden lograr puentes de amor entre dos mundos. Incluye la versión del texto en creol haitiano, un aporte de Zig-Zag a la inclusión y al encuentro entre todos los niños y niñas para formar una sociedad más fraterna.
English Description:
Beto and Bella are two Amazon macaws that have traveled far to live in southern Chile. How did they get to this place? Why did they leave the jungle behind? How were they received by Chilean animals? A moving story that shares the adversity, uncertainty, and dreams of migrants, and how through empathy you can achieve bridges of love between two worlds. At the end of the book, you will find a translation of the text in Haitian Creole. This is a gesture by the publisher Zig-Zag to promote inclusion and to the meeting between all the children to form a more welcoming society. In recent years Chile has experienced an increase in immigrants from Haiti and Venezuela, this story, while it’s about Chile, could be about so many countries that experience changes in their population from immigration.
