      Mónica Carretero

      A very, very long time ago, in a city very, very far away, in a very, very noisy building, lived a very, very big family of roly-polies:

      “The Poly family”.

      There were no less than 55 of them, and although back in the good old days there had been as many as 79 of them, I promise you that 55 isn’t a bad number at all.

      “The Poly family” lived in the basement of a very tall building. Their house was very damp and had hardly any light, but that was just fine for a family of roly-polies.

      It was a very big house.

      It didn’t have many rooms,

      but they were big.

      Grandma roly-poly had

      always liked wide, open

      spaces, and so she’d never

      allowed any walls to be built.

      Roly-polies aren’t the most attractive of creatures. They don’t have any pretty colours on their bodies, or long legs, or big eyes, or even long hair. Instead, they’re chubby, which is another way of saying short and fat. And they’re a very dull gray. Of course, grey isn’t an ugly colour, but it isn’t pretty either, it’s just a color that isn’t really a color…
