Vicente, Un Camaleón Diferente

Vicente quiere tener vivos colores como los otros camaleones, pero es completamente blanco. -Hasta dónde llegará para ser como los demás?  Vicente es diferente al resto de camaleones porque su piel no es de colores, sino blanca. Él quiere ser como los demás y está dispuesto a hacer lo que sea para conseguirlo: pintarse las escamas, agotarse cazando moscas… Pero nada funciona cómo a él le gustaría. -Descubrirá qué le hace falta para gustar a los demás? -Y de verdad es eso tan importante?  -Es tan importante la aceptación y el reconocimiento de los demás? Quizá haya que empezar por valorarse a uno mismo. –––––––––––––––––––––––– Vicente wants to be brightly colored like the other chameleons, but he's completely white.
