A magical story of a Guatemalan girl named Juanita, who loved
cooking crunchy maize tortillas and counting stars every
night.Juanita lived in Santa Catarina Palopó, a pretty little
village next to a beautiful lake, surrounded by three huge
volcanoes. She loved her pueblo and their people. Women there
helped their families by weaving huipiles from silk, wool, and
cotton thread while men worked the land. Juanita wanted to be of
help, so she always cooked for her family her favorite meal,
tortillas. At night, when the sun cleared the way for the moon to
shine bright, Juanita would run onto the roof of the house for her
nighttime routine: counting stars. The sky was so clear she could
almost touch it. But one day, Juanita’s mom became very ill, and
she couldn’t work at her loom. Juanita wanted to help but
didn’t know how to. It appears the sky had been listening to her
all the time and had a big surprise stored for her… La mágica
historia de una niña de Guatemala a la que le encantaba cocinar
tortitas de maÃz y contar estrellas cada noche.Juanita vivÃa en
Santa Catarina Palopó, un pueblito encantador junto a un hermoso
lago, rodeado por tres enormes volcanes. Para ella era el mejor
lugar del mundo donde vivÃa la gente más buena. Las mujeres
ayudaban a sus familias tejiendo huipiles de seda, lana e hilo de
algodón, mientras los hombres trabajaban la tierra. Juanita
querÃa ser de ayuda, y por eso siempre cocinaba para su familia su
plato favorito: tortitas de maÃz. Por la noche, cuando el sol se
marchaba para abrir paso a la luna, Juanita corrÃa escaleras
arriba hacia el ático para su rutina nocturna: contar estrellas.
El cielo estaba tan despejado que casi podÃa tocarlo. Pero un
dÃa, la mamá de Juanita se puso muy enferma y no podÃa trabajar
en su telar. Juanita querÃa ayudar pero no sabÃa cómo. Al
parecer, el cielo la habÃa estado escuchando todo el tiempo y
tenÃa una gran sorpresa preparada para ella…
