Una gallina nello zaino

During a trip to a farm with his family,Orazio meets Carmen, a truly special hen: she’s super-smart, good at maths, writes poetry, and… talks! Carmen is fed up with life in the country, so she persuades Orazio to take her home with him. But the problem is keeping her hidden from his parents and his unbearable older brother. It isn’t easy to avoid arousing suspicion,with the fridge full of eggs and feathers stuck in his dad’s hairbrush…A hilarious comedy of mix-ups with a surprise ending.
