Moteado, vivaracho y muy inquieto,
Uki está conociendo su entorno, pero ... todo el tiempo le dicen lo que debe
hacer y lo que no. Él obedece aunque no siempre comprende el porqué de lo que
le indican. Decidido a investigar y a enternder, Uki hará uso de su perspicacia
para explicarse las dudas que tiene ... y ¿por qué? se ocupa con gracia e
ingenio de la pregunta más recurrente en el crecimiento de todo pequeño.
