There once was a boy named Pepe and his
grandfather José, and neither knew how to
read or write; this was not uncommon in their
town. One day, they had an argument and, in
order to communicate with each other, they
hired Miguel, a man whose job was to read and
write for illiterate people. Many letters were
passed from one to the other while Pepe paid
Miguel by going to school, and José paid him
with flowers from his own garden. At the end
of the whole ordeal, Pepe kept going to school,
learned how to read and write, and wrote a
letter to the government asking for a pension
for his grandfather.
