Un niño y su monstruo confrontan sus miedos compartidos en una improbable historia de amistad, con raíces mexicanas.

Ramón es un niño pequeño y está tan asustado por el primer día en una nueva escuela que no puede dormir. El Cucuy, que es un monstruo que vive en la maceta de su cactus, tampoco puede dormir. El Cucuy también tiene miedo!

Esta dulce y sensible historia nos habla de la angustia de empezar un nuevo viaje, pero también nos demuestra que en las amistades más inesperadas pueden encontrarse el bienestar, la fortaleza y el valor.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A boy and his monster confront their mutual fears in this unlikely friendship story that's rooted in Mexican folklore

Ramón is a little boy who can't sleep. He is nervous for his first day at a new school. And El Cucuy is the monster who lives in Ramón's cactus pot. He can't sleep, either.

It turns out that El Cucuy is scared, too!

This gentle, perceptive story explores the worries that can accompany moving to a new place and beginning a new journey--and reveals how comfort, bravery, and strength can be found through even the most unexpected of friendships.
