Este es un libro infantil bilingüe (inglés/español) que narra la historia de una niña llamada Maya y su relación con el río. A través de sus visitas, Maya aprende a amar y respetar la naturaleza, comprendiendo la importancia de cuidar el medio ambiente. El río, a su vez, la acoge y la acompaña en cada estación, ofreciéndole frescura en verano y compañía en invierno. Una historia tierna que inspira a los jóvenes lectores a conectar con la naturaleza y a valorar su entorno.
