Clucky the Hen has a big heart, but she’s a bit clumsy and
forgetful… A delightful tale told in rhyme, ideal for learning to
accept the faults of those around us and to ignore gossip.Clucky
the Hen had a big heart, but she was clumsy and forgetful too. She
always had a thousand things in mind, so imagine when she gave
birth to three chicks! Sometimes, her children ended up finding
themselves in complicated situations due to the occasional
distractions from their mother. In the farmyard, the other hens
gossiped and insinuated Clucky wasn’t a good mother to her
children, and the rumor started to spread… Suddenly the rumor had
already arrived to the city and soon to the most remote part of the
world. Everyone said that Clucky did not treat her children well.
Although not everything was going as Clucky would have liked, she
did not stop striving for the welfare of her three beloved
children. But being a good mother was not an easy task: more than
once did Clucky mess up, but she never gave up and, right after
apologizing to her three little ones, she hugged them and showed
them that she loved them very much. And the rumors didn’t matter
because the three chicks were clear that their mother was unique
and that they would not change her for anything in the world.
Winner at the 2011 Living Now Book Awards. A touching and sensitive
story for all ages about accepting differences and dealing with the
loss of a loved one.On a spring night, under the light of the full
moon, a little lamb was born. Delia Derito, her mother, decided to
call him Kor Derito. Kor was a very special sheep, and as time
passed, it became more apparent that he was nothing like the other
lambs. While his friends were dressed with white, long wool, the
little one was covered with a small, fluffy cloud. Kor was a white
cloud, sometimes cloudy, sometimes even a stormy one! Without a
doubt, Kor was a very special sheep, and that was why it was more
difficult for him to relate to others. He wasn't cut out for
jumping fences and helping children fall asleep—what he liked the
most was being in nature. But like the clouds, Kor soon realized
that his place was in the sky. Ganador en los Living Now Book
Awards de 2011. Una conmovedora historia para grandes y pequeños
sobre la aceptación de las diferencias y que ayuda a afrontar la
pérdida de un ser querido.En una noche de primavera, bajo la luz
de la luna llena, la oveja Delia Derito dio a luz a su hijo, al que
llamó Kor Derito. Kor era una ovejita muy especial, y a medida que
pasaba el tiempo, más se demostraba que Kor no era como los demás
corderos, con sus cuerpos cubiertos de lana blanca… ¡El pequeño
tenÃa el cuerpo cubierto de nube! Una nube a veces blanca, a veces
nublada, ¡incluso llena de relámpagos! Sin duda, Kor era una
oveja muy especial, y por eso le costaba más relacionarse con los
demás. Él no estaba hecho para saltar vallas y ayudar a los
niños a conciliar el sueño; lo que a él le gustaba más era
estar en la naturaleza. Pero como las nubes, pronto Kor se dio
cuenta de que su lugar estaba en el cielo.
