Daniel el Mochuelo, at eleven years old, senses that his place is in the village, with his friends and his birds, but his father wants to send him to the city to study for his baccalaureate. During the night before his departure, Daniel recalls his escapades with Roque el Moñigo and Germán el Tiñoso and relives the people and landscapes of the town: a portrait of rural life and the transition from childhood to the adult world.

The novel will appeal to readers of Spanish classics and coming-of-age stories set in the rural world.
