Los Cuentos para Disfrutar son como palomas liberadas al cielo
porque tienen vida propia y destinos inciertos. Pueden leerse solo
por el gusto de pasar unos minutos agradables mas alla de este
mundo terrenal; pero tambien para encontrar en ellos un poco de
sabiduria que nos ayudara a vivir la vida con mas plenitud y
conciencia; pueden leerse para pensar, para comentar, para
compartir o para olvidar; pero hay que leerlos.
