Itzel and the Ocelot by Rachel Katstaller

5.0

One year the rainy season doesn't come and Itzel sets out to find the legendary water snake to ask for rain. On her journey through the jungle, she teams up with a talking ocelot.

What a great children's book that is a retelling of a traditional Salvadoran myth! Mexican myths are quite popular, so I'm always happy to read a story from a different Central/South American country. The writing is lyrical and the illustration style is really nice as well!
