From Boriquén to Bethlehem: a Coquí and the Three Wise Men

Book excerpt: "From Boriquén to Bethlehem: A Coquí and the Three Wise Men" is the story of a magical coquí, a tree frog native to Puerto Rico, who traveled with a young Puerto Rican girl and the Magi to the first Christmas. In gratitude, the Kings promise the girl to yearly visit the children of Puerto Rico, and to find them wherever they may be if they hear the call of a coquí. Geared toward Puerto Rican children, and in particular those living outside of the island, the fun rhyming story explains how the Magi are able to find children's homes, be it in San Juan or in New York, in Orlando or in Juana Díaz. Keep the Three Kings tradition alive for present and future generations. The book contains the text of the story in English and a Spanish translation.
