A Rifle. A Choice. A Transformation.

The Boy with a Rifle and the fairy of salvation is a powerful ecological and moral fable that will move hearts, inspire minds, and ignite conversations across generations. Blending the charm of a fairy tale with the urgency of environmental awareness, this beautifully written story follows young Patricio—a seemingly ordinary boy—on an extraordinary journey from guilt to redemption.

Gifted a rifle by his well-meaning father, Patricio joins his friends in a game that turns deadly for the innocent birds of the countryside. But when the weight of his actions overwhelms him, something awakens in his soul. Guided by remorse, conscience, and a luminous Guardian Fairy, he embarks on a transformative quest to restore life, dignity, and harmony to nature.

Perfect for parents, teachers, and readers aged 10 and up, this story is a heartfelt call to conscience and civic virtue. It teaches that real strength lies not in domination, but in compassion, awareness, and the courage to do what is right.

Featuring lyrical prose, profound reflections, and an unforgettable message, The Boy with the Rifle is more than a book—it’s a timeless gift of wisdom for a world that urgently needs it.

Ideal for fans of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Shel Silverstein, and environmental literature with soul.
