Hace mucho, muchísimo tiempo, en el México antiguo, el sol despareció. Todo la tierra se obscureció y la gente tenía miedo. Los animales salieron en busca de sol por los campos y bosques, los ríos y los lagos. Pero el sol no estaba en ninguna parte. Al no encontrarlo, todos los animales abandonaron la búsqueda, excepto la lagartija. Ésta es le historia de una lagartija valiente que no quiso darse por vencida hasta poder restaurarles a todos la luz y el calor.

A long, long time ago, in ancient Mexico, the sun disappeared. The whole land was darkened and the people were afraid. The animals went out in search of the sun through the fields and forests, rivers and lakes. But the sun was nowhere. Not finding it, all the animals gave up the search, except the lizard. This is the story of a brave lizard who didn't want to give up until she could restore light and warmth to everyone.
