Historia
El caNino de Santiago es un audiolibro para todos los públicos lleno de amor y humor. Es una oda al amor y a la unión perro-humano y, al mismo tiempo, es una puesta en valor de que lo importante de la vida es vivirla cada día, como bien te recuerda y enseña el Camino de Santiago, porque lo importante de cualquier camino es el propio camino, no la meta. Son siete capítulos dobles que establecen un paralelismo entre el primer Camino De Santiago de Nala y Sara y su camino de vida juntas.
De: Sara Escudero, y otros
