CHRISTMAS STORY
Christmas was in danger. His neighbor Augurio told Salvador, cat expert since she read This is the cat, book that explained everything about them: breeds, personalities… His cats had revealed to him that the animals had decided to strike because humans were destroying the planet.. Everyone supported her: reindeer wouldn't help Santa deliver gifts, the camels would not carry the Three Wise Men, nor would mules and oxen remain in the nativity scenes. An assembly was to be held. Salvador had to do something, He had to go in search of the animal leaders and solve the situation. I knew from his book Excursion that it was important to make a list of everything you needed before leaving. His mother helped him make it and that night he read it to him. The young teacher and the snake, story of a teacher who taught in the Amazon jungle, where he learned myths and legends, like the river that turned into an angry snake that swallowed everything. If I wanted to negotiate with animals I had to learn a lot, so he put two books in his backpack for the road: con The origin of species understood how, throughout history, animals had evolved and adapted to their environment. By Migrations learned that many animals travel looking for food and a better climate, and that these trips are increasingly difficult, due to deforestation, pollution, indiscriminate hunting and fishing. He went convinced to the assembly place. On the way he met Lota, the sperm whale, who explained to him that, in the ocean, plastic and other garbage dumped by humans was making life for animals unsustainable. Upon arrival I was well informed, the books had given him the keys. He met with the animals and promised to ensure that humans take care of the environment. As a sign of your commitment, he freed the animals from the zoo because, as he had seen in his book Free, at last!, everyone wanted to return to their place of origin. The animals, who had learned what a democracy was by reading Animal choices, in which the electoral process and the rules that had to be followed to achieve it were explained, They decided to vote to decide whether to call off the strike. The yes won and they got to work so that everything would be ready for Christmas. And that's how Salvador, with the help of his books, saved Christmas and the future of humanity.
