The Story of Ferdinand

I stood in awe in front of the stunning illustrations of this book.



It tells the story of a bull who would rather sit and smell the perfume of flower than play and fight with the other bulls. Taking place in Madrid during a Corrida.

There's no bull like Ferdinand. He lives in bullfighting country, but he is a bull who doesn't want to fight...no, he loves to smell the flowers. What a difficulty.

Probably not meant to be a suspenseful, but though I've heard of it, I never knew the ending. I was worried there for a moment! Again, great art, sprinkling of satire, beautiful message.
