The capybaras / Alfredo Soderguit ; translated by Elisa Armado.

Soderguit, Alfredo, (author,, illustrator.). Armado, Elisa, (translator.).

Summary:

A beautiful, simple, and deep book about how accepting others can enrich us all. Hens and their chicks are living safe and secure in their coop, or at least it seems that way. They are happy with life as it is. Each one knows what she should be doing. They don't even seem to notice when every now and then one of them is carried off. Until one day some capybara appear. It's hunting season and they are looking for refuge. But they are unwanted, undesirable guests and even refuse to follow the rules. But as events unfold, minds begin to open and new possibilities appear.
