When plans change, little hearts can find another way. / Cuando los planes cambian, los corazoncitos pueden buscar otro caminito.

Bibi Baby Fish is sleepy, and her coral bed is far away. Lalo wants to help, so he makes a straight little road of shells across the ocean floor. But then the water moves. The shells wiggle. The road changes.

Lalo feels upset. He wanted the road his way. Then the ocean shows him something gentle: kelp can bend, water can go around a rock, a crab can walk sideways, and a slow turtle can still get home.

In this sweet bilingual English-Spanish picture book, toddlers and preschoolers follow Lalo as he learns a simple self-regulation idea: pause, look around, move a little, and find another way.

Lee en español / Read in Spanish:

Bibi Pececito tiene sueñito, y su camita de coral está lejos. Lalo quiere ayudarla, así que hace un caminito derechito con conchitas. Pero el agua se mueve. Las conchitas se mueven. El caminito cambia.

Lalo se siente molesto. Él quería el camino a su manera. Entonces el océano le muestra algo suave: las algas pueden doblarse, el agua puede rodear una piedra, un cangrejito puede caminar de ladito, y una tortuguita lenta también puede llegar a casa.

Este cuento bilingüe inglés-español ayuda a bebés, niños pequeños y preescolares a practicar una idea simple: pausar, mirar alrededor, moverse un poquito y buscar otro caminito.
