When Carina arrives in Cidra, Puerto Rico, everything feels new: green hills, colorful houses, lively plaza, Christmas market, nighttime songs of coquà frogs, and traditions that make the town come alive. Then she meets Sabi, a wise and gentle Paloma Sabanera who becomes her guide to the island's beauty, stories, and fragile natural world.
Together, Carina and Sabi journey through the heart of Cidra, discovering the warmth of family, the joy of Puerto Rican traditions, and the shared responsibility to protect the places we love. As Carina listens to Sabi, she understands that every tree, bird, seedling, and song has a story and that even a child can help care for nature.
This tender, vividly illustrated children's book celebrates Puerto Rican culture, Latino heritage, family connection, environmental stewardship, and the magic of belonging. It is perfect for ages 5-8, early readers, classroom read-alouds, family story time, bilingual and multicultural collections, and children curious about Puerto Rico, wildlife, conservation, and the natural world.
Carina and Sabi: A Journey to the Heart of Cidra is a heartfelt story about home, heritage, hope, and the small acts of care that help our world bloom.
