Este cuento popular sigue a Connie y Diego, quienes, cansados de que los molesten, parten en busca de un nuevo hogar y se encuentran con diferentes animales en el camino. Cansados de que se burlen de ellos porque nacieron con diferentes colores en todo el cuerpo, Connie y Diego abandonan la Tierra de la Abundancia. Viajan a través de un bosque y se encuentran con un gran oso pardo. No puedes vivir con nosotros, gruñe el oso. Luego llegan al océano y le ruegan a la madre ballena que los acoja en su familia. Imposible, dice ella. Un águila en picada ama sus hermosos colores y los invita a volar a casa con ella. Pero, por desgracia, no pueden volar. Finalmente, los niños cansados tropiezan a través de una jungla aterradora donde un tigre sabio les ayuda a entender que su hogar está con los seres humanos.
This folktale follows Connie and Diego who, tired of being teased, set out to find a new home and encounter all different animals along the way. Tired of being teased because they were born with different colors all over their bodies, Connie and Diego leave the Land of Plenty. They journey through a forest and meet a big brown bear. You can't live with us, growls the bear. Then they reach the ocean and beg the mother whale to take them into her family. Impossible, she says. A swooping eagle loves their beautiful colors and invites them to fly home with her. But alas, they cannot fly. Finally, the tired children stumble through a scary jungle where a wise tiger helps them understand that their home is with human beings.
