According to Luana, the young protagonist of this book, it's not easy to live with a white tiger, although she got used to it right away. Now she tells us how the white tiger, who is her best friend, accompanies her in each of her moods and listens to her when Luana is scared and talks non-stop, because the white tiger is braver than the darkness. But the white tiger is very much his own and sometimes goes on a trip, leaving her alone with the ants of impatience that grow in her belly. Page after page, Mar Benegas traces the map of feelings of her young protagonist, who, with the help of the white tiger, learns to inhabit the world. Accompanying Mar Benegas' poetic prose are the illustrations by Francisca Yáñez, which possess the strength of the essential.
