A wonderful fable inspired by an old Swahili legend, this story teaches children the importance of taking responsibility for their actions. Kuku la gallina y Mwewe el águila siempre han sido mejores amigas. Pero un día, la vanidosa Kuku rompe su vestido favorito y le ruega a Mwewe que le preste una aguja que también es un valioso recuerdo de familia.
