Instead, he does what roosters were born to do.La Paz es un pueblo alegre, pero ruidoso. Un poco de silencio no le vendra nada mal. As que la gente del pueblo elige a don Pepe de alcalde para que resuelva el problema del ruido. Muy pronto, se prohbe cantar en cualquier sitio. Y hasta las teteras tienen miedo de pitar! Pero un gallito muy ruidoso, a quien le importa un pito las reglas del alcalde, sigue haciendo lo que los gallos hacen desde que nacen: cantar!
