Spanish: Guillermina se va errante se basa en la historia real de una vaca fugitiva en Connecticut. Durante cinco meses en 2011, la vaca negra Angus de 800 libras fue vista en los alrededores de Milford, Orange y New Haven, paseando y viajando con una manada de ciervos. Cuando finalmente es capturada y reubicada en un santuario de animales en Oxford, Guillermina descubre que su impulso de aventuras ha sido domesticado al comprender que su nueva amiga, la granjera Betty finalmente la acepta y la ama. En el camino, nuestra heroÃna bovina aprende a aceptar las cosas de sà misma que son diferentes a las de los ciervos, y que a veces tenemos que dejar nuestro pasto familiar para encontrar nuestro verdadero hogar. Los lectores de cinco a nueve años ( también los adultos!) se enamorarán de Guillermina y de sus amigos animales y humanos, que cobran vida en las coloridas ilustraciones en acuarela de Katie Runde.
English: Wilhelmina Goes Wandering is based on the true story of a runaway cow in Connecticut. For five months in 2011, the 800-pound Black Angus was seen around Milford, Orange, and New Haven, hanging out and traveling with a herd of deer. When she is eventually captured and relocated to an animal sanctuary in Oxford, Wilhelmina finds that her urge for adventures has been tamed by knowing she is finally accepted and loved by her new farmer friend Betty. Along the way, our bovine heroine learns about accepting the things about herself that are different from the deer--and that sometimes we have to leave our familiar pasture to find our true home. Five- to nine-year-old readers (grownups, too!) will fall in love with Wilhelmina and her animal and human friends, brought to colorful life in Katie Runde's lovingly rendered watercolor illustrations.
