An album with a double title, double cover (front and back) and, therefore, a double sense of reading:
EXTRAORDINARY TRAVELLERS
• Reading in the traditional sense (turning the pages from left to right).
• Informative book: 16 species of animals that make extraordinary journeys are reviewed, either because of their complexity or because of the distance they travel, from Monarch Butterflies (migration of more than 7000 km), to Leatherback Turtles (20,000 km in 647 days).

ROQUE
• Reading in the opposite direction to the traditional one (turning the pages from right to left).
• Fictional story: throughout the reading of "EXTRAORDINARY TRAVELERS" a thrush bird named Roque can be seen in the distance who, unlike those of his species characterized by the fact that they are not migrants, decides to go against the current and take the initiative to travel and see the world.
