Guilherme Augusto Araújo Fernandes era vizinho de um asilo de velhos, todos seus amigos, mas era de Antônia que ele mais gostava. Quando soube que ela perdera a memória, quis saber o que isso significava, e foi perguntar aos outros do asilo. Como resposta, ouve que memória é algo bem antigo, que faz chorar, faz rir, vale ouro e é quente. Então monta uma cesta e vai levá-la à Antônia. Quando ela recebe os presentes maravilhosos (conchas, marionete, medalha, bola de futebol e um ovo ainda quente) cada um deles lhe devolve a lembrança de histórias.

Julie Vivas''s warm, whimsical watercolors, accompanied by familiar passages from the gospels of Matthew and Luke, create a fresh vision of this Spanish translation of the story of Christ''s birth.
