Una Larga Travesía Hasta El Agua: Basada en una historia real

The book switches between a girl in 2008 and a boy in 1985, and I wondered how Linda Sue Park decided to weave these narratives together seamlessly.

The depiction of water scarcity and its impact was eye-opening, but I’m curious if it made others want to get involved or educate themselves further.

The characters’ strength in the face of adversity was really moving. I wonder if Linda Sue Park had a personal connection or specific inspiration for this theme.
