"¿Pueden ayudarme?" Mientras juegan en el océano chileno, Isidora y Julián escuchan un lamento: un lobo marino se ha enredado en una red de pesca abandonada. Los niños liberan a su acuático amigo y luego se preguntan qué hacer con la red. Con la ayuda de una pajarita, la reciclan para crear algo útil nuevamente, algo mejor que nuevo. Esta inspiradora historia enseña a niños y niñas sobre los peligros de la contaminación del océano y les muestra lo que pueden hacer para ayudar a sanar la tierra.
"Will you help me?" Isidora and Julian, playing in the Chilean ocean, hear a plaintive cry -- a sea lion is tangled in an abandoned fishing net. They free their ocean friend then wonder what to do with the net. With the help of a bird, they recycle it into something useful again, something better than new. This inspiring story educates children about the dangers of ocean pollution, then shows what they can do to help heal the earth.
