Este interesante libro corresponde a uno de los pocos libros sagrados existentes en la actualidad que describe en forma religiosa, literaria y metafórica la creación del universo y de los hombres según la cultura maya. Es una especie de Biblia sagrada de los mayas que sobrevivió a la sangrienta conquista española en el siglo XV. Cuenta la historia de unos gemelos que lograron superar a los dioses del mundo terreno en un juego de bola, detallando la evolución de los mayas hasta la llegada de los españoles, un mundo lleno de tradiciones y ancestrales costumbres del pueblo kiché. Un libro escrito originalmente en lengua nativa para luego ser traducido al español a principios del siglo XVIII. Un libro que viene complementado con sugerentes imágenes e ilustraciones que cautivarán a los niños en su lectura.
