Overview

Cuando un raro y pequeño animalito aparece fuera de la nada después de un gran chubasco, ¡los animales australianos se preguntan de dónde puede ser! Su piel, sus patas, su cola, y su pico como de cuchara de helado les recordaba a cada animal algo diferente. Con un espiritu ""australiano"", todos se ponen a trabajar con entusiasmo para ayudarle a descubrir su procedencia. Catarrinco es la historia de la aventura de un animalito que quiere buscar su lugar en este mundo y como algunas veces se caerá de bruces al querer llegar ahí. Una historia del corazón con un destello inconfundible, Catarrinco prueba que, con una poquita de determinación (y algunos buenos amigos) cuando te caes puedes levantarte y seguir de nuevo.
