While fleeing the destruction and loneliness of bombs and war, April meets Julio, another child who has lost everything. They are accompanied only by their stuffed animals and their backpacks, full of memories.

April runs away from the ruins and loneliness left by the war in search of a new home. She carries with her only her stuffed animal, Coco, and her backpack, full of memories.
After walking through rain and snow, she meets another child, Julio. Together, they climb mountains and sleep in abandoned houses, until they reach the sea. Never giving up hope, they embark on a dangerous journey towards a new beginning.
An important book to help talk about the consequences of war and the experiences of refugees.
