Book Synopsis



A delectably sweet story about the unbreakable bonds of family.

Muégano [ moo - egano ]: Candy made with square pieces of wheat flour fried and glued together with honey.

Meet the Muéganos: a family so close they're stuck together like the traditional Mexican candy. Papá Muégano says it's honey that holds them. Mamá says it's love. The oldest, Julia, wouldn't have it any other way. Sure, swimming isn't always easy, and it wouldn't hurt to have a little privacy, but there's always someone close by to help with homework, and there's nothing like cuddling up with your parents. Until the day the Muéganos take a trip to the museum, and Julia's irrepressible curiosity causes an unexpected crack... Mamá wants to fix it. Papá tries to be more careful. But some things are just inevitable. In her picture book debut, Mexican author-illustrator Jaque Jours tells a universal story about independence, growing up, and learning to let go.

Spanish edition

Una historia deliciosamente dulce sobre los lazos inquebrantables de la familia.

Conozcan a los Muéganos: una familia tan unida que están pegados como el tradicional dulce mexicano. Papá Muégano dice que es la miel lo que los mantiene juntos. Mamá dice que es el amor. Y la mayor, Julia, no lo querría de otra manera.

Claro, nadar no siempre es fácil, y un poco de privacidad no vendría mal, pero siempre hay alguien cerca para ayudar con la tarea, y no hay nada como acurrucarse con tus padres. Hasta que un día los Muéganos hacen una visita al museo, y la curiosidad incontenible de Julia provoca una grieta inesperada...

Mamá quiere arreglarla. Papá intenta tener más cuidado. Pero hay cosas que simplemente son inevitables. En su debut como autora-ilustradora de libros álbum, la creadora mexicana Jaque Jours cuenta una historia universal sobre la independencia, el crecimiento y el arte de aprender a soltar.
