What if home isn’t where you’re from… but what you find along the way?
Juli the jaguar has just moved from Brazil to the beachy town of La Barra, Uruguay, and she’s not thrilled. On her very first day, she gets completely lost! But with the help of a capybara named Carlito, a parakeet who loves art, and a stylish flamingo, Juli begins to discover that home might not be just a jungle or a beach. It might be wherever friendship, snacks, and silly adventures live.
Packed with rhymes, laughs, and local Uruguayan flair, this heartwarming tale reminds readers that home is a feeling, not a place.
Age Range: Perfect for ages 1–10 (and their grownups too!)
