To stop himself from getting bored, he pretends to be a silkworm. But while he’s playing, he accidentally knocks some figurines off a shelf, and worst of all, he bumps his head. Neither his mother nor the storekeeper seem to notice the lump; instead, they tell off Balzo as if he’d smashed the figurines (and caused the lump) on purpose.... On purpose? He was just playing around with his imaginary friends! Unfortunately, no one is interested in knowing his part of the story... And mom is so angry she sounds like an ogre! Once they get home, Balzo goes straight to bed when suddenly he hears this powerful sound: «CRASH!». Could it happen to anyone?

Winner at the 2013 International Latino Book Awards. Our famous star Clucky the Hen is back on a new adventure with her chicks! Clucky takes her chicks to the barnyard school on a tricycle ride. There they learn, play, make friends, and above all, have fun. However, the three chicks witness the rejection suffered by a classmate at school, and even they themselves are the target of mockery and misunderstanding. Sad and worried, the three brothers talk to her mother Clucky, who is always there with her magic kettle to minimize all those bad feelings, and even to recycle them! This third tale of Clucky the Hen deals with the theme of bullying. Our heroine, as scatter-brained as ever, but with all of her energy and resourcefulness, solves the problem with the help of a magic kettle that symbolizes the best possible attitude in these cases: a willingness to discuss the situation. This attitude should serve as a model for our children, promoting respect, living in harmony, and accepting other people’s differences.

Luke pulls his sheets up higher and higher, trying to scare them away – and the worst thing is the night has only just begun! Each sound he hears become a fearsome monster in his mind, although... what are those sounds? Where do they really come from?
