Sako just moved in. Her new home is in the country and she decides to explore while her parents finish unpacking. On the way, she discovers her neighbor's home. Then she stops to pick flowers and a sound from the bushes draws her attention. She finds a basket in the weeds that inadvertently welcomes her to her new home.

Jordán is not even six years old, and he already gets on adults' nerves, as he is always way up high. He climbs trees, jumps over the fences, and the ladders are his best friends. He is told off at home and at school, but he answers back saying he is more careful than it seems, and that he has never, ever, fallen. In fact, the only thing he wants is that they trust him and admire him. One day, an incident with his grandparents will enable him to prove his skills and transform him into the hero that he has always been.

In every possible way, Nico tries to convince his mother that adopting a pet is a great idea. He has suggested giving a home to an elephant or sheltering a poor python that had been abandoned with her little scorpion siblings. But nothing has worked out. Until one day, unexpectedly, a little chicken that walks upright follows him home. This is how an adventurous friendship is born. However, that friendship is threatened the day Nico loses his friend in the middle of the Pet Day Parade.
