When the Condor meets the Eagle
by Camila Reimers, Macarena Ortega
Description
A surprising and bilingual Spanish and English book that includes a free Augmented Reality (AR) App with simple games, Andean music, and audio recordings of the story in both languages. The Legend of the Eagle and the Condor comes from the indigenous peoples of South America, particularly Peru and Ecuador shamans. Basically, it states, "When the Eagle and the Condor come together in harmony, there will be peace on Earth". Camilo is a boy who was born in Canada; his mother is Canadian and his father is Chilean. In this story, the eagle invites the condor to come to Ottawa and celebrate Camilo's birth which embraces the knowledge of both cultures.
