"One day, I decided to take my stuff up to the attic and change my life".



"I went out the street to deal with my neighbours. I would have loved to be a friend of everybody, but nobody wanted to know anything about me".




"And so I ended up alone, locked up in my house, until I met you", Ruberta said.
Quickly Salfón thought and had an idea:
"Ruberta, your brooms are "special" and I think that only you could help me..."



The next day, Ruberta accomplished something that everybody had always wished and Salfón had never been able to do: to clean the roof of the bell tower of the church.



Roofs had never shone like that before. The whole village met at the square to acclaim Salfon. And Ruberta too. Now every roof was really clean. All of them.

The END

I just saw your Salfon story for the first time. I've never seen such beautiful colors. And the story is great too - very heartwarming. It's nighttime here so you won't see this till tomorrow.

Oh! I haven't noticed before that the witch's and the church's roof were facing each other. What a great idea of yours! And it's so nice that the ending comes with both roofs being cleaned ... "what a wonderful world this would be"

Mis padres lo conocieron a Ud. en Kenai Fjords N.P. en Seward y mi madre me pasó la dirección de su sitio de web. Me encantaron los dibujos y la historia de este libro. (Soy maestra de español en GA y me encantaría leer su historia en español.) Bueno, suerte con todo. Lisa K., hija de Lewis y Ann.
