Summary "Ratón Pérez: cuento infantil" by Luis Coloma is a charming children's story written in the early 20th century. This delightful narrative introduces readers to the whimsical character of Ratón Pérez, the mouse who collects teeth from children leaving them under their pillows, a tradition echoed in many cultures. The story unfolds in the fictional kingdom of Buby I, showcasing themes of childhood, imagination, and compassion. The tale follows the young King Buby, who, upon losing his first tooth, learns the customs associated with the beloved Ratón Pérez. Excitedly, he writes a letter to the mouse and puts his tooth under his pillow. When Ratón Pérez visits, an unexpected adventure ensues as they journey together to help a poor child named Gilito. Through this journey, Buby discovers the stark realities of poverty and suffering in his kingdom, prompting him to reflect on his own privilege as a king. The story concludes with a heartfelt message about brotherhood and the importance of caring for those less fortunate, highlighting the moral responsibility that comes with being in a position of power.
