Pepe the Crow and Miguel the Rabbit — Catching the Wind

On a windy day in the forest, Miguel the Rabbit watches in amazement as Pepe the Crow glides through the air, carried by powerful gusts of wind.

Miguel wants to experience the same thing, and his imagination immediately gets to work.

First, he tries to catch the wind inside a large sack. When that fails, he comes up with an even bolder idea: building a small wooden cart with wheels and a giant leaf for a sail.

There is only one problem.

Miguel forgets the brakes.

What begins as a funny experiment quickly turns into a wild downhill ride, with Pepe flying close behind, forest animals jumping out of the way, and Miguel hanging on as the wind does exactly what he hoped it would do: push him forward.

A cheerful and humorous story about curiosity, imagination, friendship, and the importance of thinking before taking action.
