Condición: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Inspirado en una historia real, este cuento relata una insólita y emocionante relación entre un hombre y un animal. La autora se basó en un artículo del periódico sobre un pingüino de Magallanes encontrado en una isla cerca de Rio de Janeiro, cubierto de petróleo y enfermo. El viejo Joao lo cuidó, alimentó y lo llamó Dindim. Dindim permaneció con su amigo hasta que un día sintió la llamada de la naturaleza y abandonó la isla migrando hasta la Patagonia. Por razones insondables para los científicos, Dindim ha decidido regresar cada año junto a Joao, haciendo un viaje de miles de kilómetros y enfrentándose a múltiples dificultades. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
