Synopsis "Petook: The Rooster who met Jesus "

Petook is a snowy white rooster and proud of his wife's new brood of chicks, and quick to protect them from an intruding young stranger named Jesus walking through the garden. But when he sees the child kneeling in wonder and caressing his newborn chicks, Petook is soothed and crows happily.Years later, Petook, whose home is in sight of Calvary's hill, is awaiting another hatching and becomes strangely agitated when he sees men being lifted onto crosses there. He doesn't know that one of the men being crucified is the same boy who visited Petook's family long ago.But three days later on Easter morning, as a new brood of chicks hatches that coincides with the Resurrection of the stranger, Petook is inspired to crow with great joy, celebrating the mystery of new life.Caryll Houselander's artful storytelling and Tomie dePaola's delightful illustrations will invite young readers to enter into a relationship with the One who longs to care for us all.

View Author's Page
Caryll Houselander (Caryll Hubert Houselander, 1901–1954) fue una escritora, mística laica y artista británica cuya obra espiritual se caracteriza por una mirada radicalmente encarnada del cristianismo. Vivió una vida marcada por la fragilidad física, la introspección y una intensa sensibilidad hacia el sufrimiento humano, elementos que moldearon una teología profundamente empática. Sin pertenecer a una orden religiosa, desarrolló una espiritualidad original centrada en la presencia de Cristo en la vida cotidiana, especialmente en los márgenes: los heridos, los pobres, los invisibles.

Su libro más conocido, El junco de Dios, es una meditación sobre la humildad y la disponibilidad interior, escrita con un lenguaje poético y accesible que ha influido tanto en lectores laicos como religiosos. También es autora de This War Is the Passion y Guilt, donde aborda el dolor colectivo y la culpa desde una perspectiva espiritual poco complaciente. Su legado reside en haber unido mística, psicología y compasión sin solemnidad ni dogma, algo nada fácil y mucho menos común.
