Napi

Napi is a young Mazateca girl who lives with her family in a village on the bank of a river in the Mexican state of Oaxaca. Each afternoon the family sits beneath the shade of a huge ceiba tree and listens to the grandfather's stories. When night comes, the trees fill with white herons settling on their branches. The ceiba tree sends Napi dreams every night, and in her favorite one, she becomes a heron, gliding freely along the river.Ramirez, Antonio is the author of 'Napi', published 2004 under ISBN 9780888996107 and ISBN 0888996101.
