Riassunto

Though hummingbirds are among the smallest birds, they have the stamina to fly great distances, not only during migration but on a daily basis. And together with the bees and bats, they help to pollinate the flora and fauna to sustain the world's food supply. Meet Rubilito, an intrepid little hummingbird. Find out why he leaves Texas and flies over the Gulf of Mexico, through Central America, all the way to Panama! Learn how you can help him do his job. Bilingual children's story in English and Spanish.

L'autore:

RALPH DESSAU was born in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1928. In 1953, he graduated with a Master's Degree in Chemical Engineering from the Technical University of Copenhagen and received a Fulbright Fellowship, which enabled him to spend a year at Stanford University and another year at the California Institute of Technology. Upon his return to Denmark in 1955, he married Carmen, his wife of more than 58 years, and started his career in the International Petroleum Industry, which lasted for 30 years. During this time, he also wrote The Hummingbirds of Caracas and produced a movie, In Defense of the Sea. In 2005, Ralph moved to Boquete, Panama, where he wrote his second book, Flying Jewels about the hummingbirds of Panama. Rubilito, the Traveling Hummingbird is Ralph's third book. As an avid photographer, over the years, Ralph devoted his spare time to his favorite hobby: photographing hummingbirds and other wildlife.
