I wrote a short novel called “La aventura de Zunzuncito”. For this fifth season of Simple Stories in Spanish, I will be sharing a chapter from the novel each week. This week is chapter 4!
It’s not easy being the smallest bird in the world. You have to deal with bigger bully birds, bees that don’t want to share and spiders that want to suck your blood. Zunzuncito is tired of being small. Perhaps if he is big and strong, he can save himself from these sticky situations. After all, the animal that saved him from the spiderweb must be big and strong, right?
This story is told mostly in the the present tense, with only the first paragraph in the past (to recap the previous chapters). Repeated words and phrases include “salvador” (savior/rescuer), “liberar” (to liberate/free), “llora” (cries) and “patas” (animal feet or hands. No matter where you are in your language journey, stories will help you on your way. You can find a transcript of the story and read along at https://smalltownspanishteacher.com/2021/09/26/simple-stories-in-spanish-la-aventura-de-zunzuncito-capitulo-4/
