Description

Mit Albin will niemand spielen. Albin hat eine schneeweiße Haut, statt einer rosigen wie die anderen Schweine auf dem Hof. Und Lila, das Huhn, wird aus dem Hühnerstall gejagt, da es alt ist und keine Eier mehr legt. Als sich die beiden eines Tages treffen, beschließen sie, Freunde zu werden. Natürlich schüttelt jeder den Kopf über dieses seltsame Paar. Aber dann gelingt es, den Fuchs ein für alle Mal vom Hof zu vertreiben: durch eine List von Albin und Lila!

Description

Once there was a farm where many pigs and many chickens lived in cordial but distant contentment. They were all very polite to each other, but no pig ever played with a chicken and no chicken ever played with a pig. Not, that is, until Albert meets Lila. Both are outcasts: Albert ridiculed because he is the only white pig on the farm and Lila exiled from the henhouse because she is too old to lay eggs. Naturally, the other animals shake their heads over this odd couple. But Albert and Lila don't care. They're having too much fun together. And when they come up with a cunning plan to outwit the fox, they transform the farm into a safe and happy haven filled with friendship and fun for all.
