Carlota no dice ni pio - 2ª edición (SOMOS8) - Hardcover

Selected as Especially Notable New Title for Spring 2016 -- Booklist

"A thought-provoking exploration of fear, shyness, and the power of communication and connection." -- Booklist

"A tale gently told of finding our inner strengths....The whimsical, tongue-in-cheek narration asks readers questions . . . and adds little asides . . . making readers feel the story is being told just to them." -- Kirkus Reviews

"What if a child doesn't need to talk? A funny story about shyness and how to overcome it....All of [NubeOcho's] books promote respectful attitude towards all types of diversity. They are also a playful medium that makes it easier to engage in first experiences and feelings that the little ones may not easily understand. I like that that books offer underliying themes or teachable ideas, especially for little kids that sometimes have a hard time expressing themselves and their feelings." - The Review Wire

Little Carlota is timid and afraid to speak. One day, by accident, she was locked inside the house's pantry, alone, with only tomato cans and marmalade jars around her. Using her voice will be the only way to help her get out of there.
