Cayalita is a little bird with a big attitude. Her best friend, Chongo, helps to keep her on the right path. When Cayalita forgets to eat breakfast, she greedily gulps down Chongo's breakfast instead. Feeling bad because she didn't save any for him, Cayalita heads out on a mission to find breakfast for Chongo. What she finds is a group of caring friends and the meaning of the saying, "it is better to give than to receive".
