The author describes this story as quixotic because he believes it is ok to dream big even when others see your dreams as foolish, impractical or unlikely.
Summary: An encouraging and humorous bilingual quixotic story features an endearing young chick who, despite all advice to the contrary, is convinced he can fly. Each page spread contains Spanish narrative on left and English narrative on right and abounds in colorful illustrations of the little chick, his mother hen, and his neighborhood friends Don Gallo the rooster and Don Chango the blackbird. PÃo PÃo (Pea-Oh, Pea-Oh) is a small bird with big dreams to fly to the top of the trees and eat the delicious breadfruit growing there. Through a fortunate encounter that launches PÃo PÃo into flight, his dream becomes a reality much to the surprise and amazement of his family and friends and reinforces the belief that it is okay to dream big and that nothing is impossible.
An informative Glossary of historical, cultural, and linguistic references rounds out this robust book. The language used is entertaining and memorable, which makes this a great resource for those learning Spanish or English.
