Este dinero me alcanzaría para una bicicleta como la de Sergio. Entonces no tendría que ir corriendo a la escuela, iría en bicicleta. Rubén se siente como si fuera el único niño que no tiene bicicleta. Desearía tener una bicicleta como la de su amigo Sergio, pero sabe que los deseos no se cumplen sin dinero. Un día, cuando Rubén ve un billete de un dólar que se cae del bolso de una señora, lo recoge y lo guarda en su bolsillo; al fin y al cabo es solo un dólar. Pero cuando llega a su casa, Rubén descubre que en realidad es un billete de cien dólares, suficiente para comprarse la bicicleta que tanto desea. Con ternura y generosidad, los creadores de "Esos zapatos", nos ofrecen una historia real y cercana que llegará a los corazones de todos los que han tratado de hacer lo que es correcto.

 

This money would be enough for me for a bicycle like Sergio's. Then I wouldn't have to run to school, I would ride my bike. Rubén feels as if he is the only child who does not have a bicycle. He wishes he had a bicycle like his friend Sergio's, but he knows that wishes are not fulfilled without money. One day, when Rubén sees a dollar bill that falls from a lady's purse, he picks it up and puts it in his pocket; after all, it's only a dollar. But when he gets home, Rubén discovers that it is actually a one hundred dollar bill, enough to buy the bicycle he wants so much. With tenderness and generosity, the creators of "Those shoes" offer us a true and close story that will reach the hearts of all those who have tried to do what is right.
