A touching story of a baby seagull Fortunata - her mom died but before she entrusted her egg to ... a cat! The image of the city from the point of view of Zorba the cat, the honesty and faithfulness to the promises, the friendship - are described in a poetical language with nuances of humour.
This book gave me the desire to fly!
(vola solo chi osa farlo - only who attempt can fly)

Rarely we have the opportunity to read a simple written book with such a courageous and childish message embeded within the pages. Once again Luis Sepulveda has tell us that only he who wishes to fly can do so. Superation. Read the book, read it again and most importantly, read this small book to your children and grandchildren. They will certainly know what to do next.

For the adult Spanish student it is difficult to find novels that are not too difficult nor too juvenile. The language is challenging and the story line is quite wonderful. Adult learners, this book is a must.

People don't understand that Puerto Rico works under the same federal laws, we have the same USPS and the only bad thig is that they don't send merchandise to Puerto Rico thinking the cost was going to be mayor when the cost to send a book like that is 1.22
