Now in Spanish! A gripping, vividly told journey that reveals how the border wall threatens wildlife—and why protecting nature matters to us all.

Follow two endangered ocelots as they attempt to cross the border in this powerful picture book about the environmental impact of the Wall.

Explore the beauty and biodiversity of our spectacular border area and see how the Wall impacts plants and animals. As two endangered ocelots attempt to cross the border, they face obstacles that drive home the catastrophic effects of the Wall--and the many benefits of keeping the border barrier-free. Powerful storytelling introduces young readers to the wildlife that thrives along the border and urges budding nature buffs to value and protect our environment.
