Nap� is a young Mazateca girl who lives with her family in a village on the bank of a river in the Mexican state of Oaxaca. Each afternoon the family sits beneath the shade of a huge ceiba tree and listens to the grandfather's stories. As Nap� listens, she imagines different colors - orange, purple, violet, and green. When night comes, the trees fill with white herons settling on their branches. The ceiba tree sends Nap� dreams every night, and in her favorite one, she becomes a heron, gliding freely along the river. Domi's vibrant palette and magical illustrations perfectly complement this imaginative story.
