Baldomera, the donkey, became famous worldwide when a video of her reunion with her owner after three months of confinement due to COVID-19 went viral. The colorful illustrations and simple yet playful text make this a perfect read-aloud for story time.

La historia de la burrita Baldomera ha dado la vuelta al mundo. Más de cincuenta millones de personas conocen su historia.

La burrita no pudo ver a su dueño a causa del confinamiento que trajo la COVID-19. Cuando se encontraron después de tres largos meses, se grabó un vídeo que nos conmovió y se hizo viral. La burrita Baldomera se echó a llorar al ver por fin a su amo.

Inspirada en hechos reales.

Enrique G. Ballesteros has spent twenty-five years in the publishing industry as a head of communication, editor, and writer. He currently runs the bookstore Venir a Cuento in Madrid. The Story of Baldomera is his first children’s book.

No matter what happens, the little mule knows that her friend Ismael will be back to see her, to spend time with her, and to enjoy her company. She knows he loves her and she loves him as well. Ballesteros, Arias, and Rubio create a book based on actual events that will be sure to warm the hearts of all who read it.--Mr Alex's Bookshelf

I loved the soft illustrations with attractive colors and broad country scenes. The art style is absolutely beautiful! – Luminous Libro
