A hardback, a letter, an heirloom.
Four times a year.
Four times a year: a hardback, a letter from a child in Antigua, and one heirloom from the village the book is from.
Cuatro veces al año: un libro de tapa dura, una carta de un niño en Antigua y una pieza del pueblo del que viene el libro.
One Vista Tranquila hardback, one handwritten letter from a child at our Guatemalan partner school (translated by Kim), one heirloom artisan item from the village the story is from. Curated each season around a new place: Antigua in spring, Sumpango in fall, the Maya highlands in winter.
What's in every box.
Curated by Kim Pitts. Sourced directly from Guatemalan partners. Sealed by hand, never drop-shipped from a warehouse.
