Es una historia cortita sobre una oveja que nunca consigue su turno para saltar “la valla hacía los sueños” de una anciana entonces idea diferentes estrategias para poder cruzar. Además está acompañada de unas ilustraciones preciosas y que complementan la historia.
"La oveja 19" is a cute children's read about an old woman who needs to count sheep in order to fall asleep, but some of the sheep have trouble jumping over the fence and decide to fight for their rights. The story is written in Castilian Spanish but the message is understood regardless of cultural background, making it an easy international read. The story is funny and the illustrations help understand the struggles and fight that these sheep encounter every night.
