El Nino Pastor : Libros Colibri

In the spare, beautiful country of the American Southwest, Ben cares for his family's sheep during summer vacation.

One evening Ben discovers that one animal is missing.

Now he must race as night falls to rescue the ewe lamb before Coyote comes out to rule the night.

Kastner's rich, earth-toned oil paintings capture a terrain and a way of life familiar to many Spanish-speaking people.
