Translated from Spanish with illustrations throughout, Toletis is a uniquely poignant story about nature and friendship, imagination, love and loss.
The trees and grass are disappearing to make way for a new section of road. Toletis, his dog Amenophis, friends Claudia and Tutan are on a mission to find ingenious ways of replacing them and turning their little valley town, set deep in the mountains, lusciously green again. The odds are stacked against them. Can they succeed... with some very unusual help?
Rafa Ruiz is a journalist and author who has a staunch commitment to culture, art and the environment, and the majority of his career has been focused on these three topics. He is also one of the partner-founders of the Press Association for Environmental Information (APIA). Elena Hormiga is an illustrator with a sense of humour. Her fun pictures are imbued with irony and metaphor. She studied and worked as an engineer and later turned to illustration. She currently works creating images for stories, articles and posters. Ben Dawlatly completed his masters in Hispanic Studies and Translation Theory at UCL. His technical translations focus on human rights and the environment, but his real calling is for fiction and poetry.
