DESCRIPTION

This is the story of a bird with powers. It does everything it can to teach its fellow forest dwellers about the importance of the nature around them where they make their home. 

A reluctant lumberjack, a naive princess, a distracted lion, a scrap metal collector who could not care less, a denier heron, a frog who asks too many questions, and an unhelpful piglet are hypnotised and entranced by our main character. Along with the help of a wise dolphin and a spell-casting giraffe, they become aware and take responsibility for saving the forest. 

A very ecological tale divided into three parts, it showcases fragments from masterpieces by Schumann, Chopin, Wagner, Saint-Saëns, Bartók, Gershwin, Ravel, Satie, Quintón, and Nazareth for the delight of the entire family.
