Sana, sana, colita de rana (Bilingual: English and Spanish)

This bilingual picture book empowers children, especially girls, by showing them that they can pursue their dreams and overcome obstacles regardless of societal expectations. The book challenges gender norms and encourages children to believe in themselves. Chicago Public Library's Best of the Best Picture Books of 2022 Inspired by the classic rhyming song, Sana, sana, colita de rana, that many American-Latino children grow up with, this book follows Tina in her quest to become an aspiring Mexican wrestler, alongside her plush sidekick, Mr. Frog. After she suffers a boo-boo, Tina is made fun of by her brother. Her ouchie makes her want to quit, but it is up to her to face her fear of being injured again and return to the wrestling ring on her own, and just like the song encourages – no matter how bad things get, today or tomorrow will always be better!
