Grab your dancing shoes and set up your radios. It's time to put on a show! Following our beloved board book, Singing - Cantando: De colores, comes the newest addition to the series, Singing - Cantando: La Cucaracha. This interactive songbook will introduce little ones to the classic Mexican-American nursery rhyme, La Cucaracha, in English and Spanish.

Parents will love this bilingual English-Spanish board book because it will teach little ones the lyrics to one of Mexico's most beloved folk songs, but to mimic the dance and beat of this lively cockroach using the book mechanisms that bring it to life!
Author Biography
Nayeli Reyes was born in Mazatlán, Mexico. She is Emilio's mother, a chef and photographer specialized in food and products. She recalls devouring any book that came to her hands at a young age; with a special weakness for children's books; now she's trying to share this lovely activity with Emilio. She likes to combine her love for books with her cooking, creating recipes inspired by literature for her YouTube channel. In her spare time, you may find her doing DIY projects: crochet, watercolor or origami, baking sourdough bread and playing with Emilio and her husband Alejandro.
Citlali Reyes is a Mexican illustrator. Since she was a child, she has always loved doodling and telling stories through images; this drew her to the enchanting world of illustration, where she has resided for almost ten years. In 2014, she partnered with Lil' Libros to create their first three books, and over time, she has illustrated more than thirty bilingual children's books for the publisher. Now, she finds herself in a new adventure as the author and illustrator of her debut book, Sana, sana, colita de rana. When she is not drawing for countless hours, Citlali enjoys reading, stargazing, or playing around with her camera.
