The capybara is known as the friendliest animal in the world, and in Carla Gracia’s new book it becomes the protagonist of a story full of humor, tenderness, and unexpected adventures.
The Capybara is the official plum pit thrower of the Luna Lunera Boat Circus, until a shipwreck takes him to a deserted island where he meets the Aye-aye, a peculiar nocturnal rodent who is afraid of the dark.
What begins as the coexistence of two very different creatures soon turns into a journey of creativity, friendship, and resilience. Together, they will try to build a teleportation machine while the Capybara searches for a new purpose in his life.
With fresh illustrations and an engaging narrative rhythm, this picture book is perfect for early readers who enjoy series like Narwhal and Jelly, Bobo and PupPup, or The Bad Guys. It’s an invitation to discover that even in the most difficult moments, one can find humor, companionship, and new opportunities.
Carla Gracia, award-winning novelist and creator of major audiovisual projects, offers here a story written for young readers, with the same sensitivity and boldness that characterize her entire career. Capibara is now available in bookstores, ready to spark smiles and become an unforgettable reading companion.
