"Why Chibchacum Carries the World" by Brian Demeter is a captivating tale inspired by the myth of Chibchacum, a deity from the indigenous cultures of Colombia.

Chibchacum, tasked with supporting the Earth on his shoulders, faces challenges from the forces of chaos and greed threatening to disrupt balance. Through his journey, readers explore the importance of stewardship, cultural heritage, and the impact one can have on the world.
