Summary

Acompaña a la abuela un sábado en la tarde a visitar a Yamaya al río Hudson.

Todos los días, la abuela extraña el océano en Puerto Rico. Pero los sábados, cuando el sol está alto en el cielo, la abuela y su nieta recorren Harlem hacia la 12 Avenida camino a un lugar mágico: al río Hudson.

Allí, visitan a las Yamaya, sirenas que invocan la maravilla infantil y conservan la memoria de todos los que han pasado por sus aguas. Juntas, la abuela, su nieta y los espíritus de la antigua religión y el amor familiar celebran el río que ha traído a millones de nuevos estadounidenses a sus orillas a lo largo de las generaciones.
