Description
Take a journey into the magical wilds of South America with this timeless tale from Ecuador! A poor girl named Sisa and her faithful llama, Yaku, must set off on an epic quest to save her family—not to mention the heir to the Inca Empire. To do so, she must retrieve water from a magical lake high in in the Andes Mountains. Along the way, she meets a colorful cast of characters: talking toucans, a murderous puma, a feathered snake, and the heavenly llama himself, Urcuchillay. Ultimately, she learns the power of kindness and unselfishness.
