Medio Pollito: A Spanish TaleHardcover, 5 January 2012

In this vibrant retelling of a beloved tale of Spanish folk literature, Medio Pollito--remarkable from the day he was hatched--follows his spirit of adventure to the big city. The other barnyard animals don't think he can make it--"He's only a half-chick! He won't even get halfway!" gobbled the turkey--but the little chick's mother believes he just needs to go one step at a time. On his journey, Medio Pollito helps new friends, Agua, Fuego, and Viento, and as they repay his favors, he finds his way to a place just for him. As the author asks, "Why stay in the hen yard when you can have a whole city at your feet?"
