In this beautiful story, Amapola travels to visit her cousins in the United States and, for the first time in her life, realizes that she doesn't hear the coqui's song. She soon discovers that its voice is not just a nighttime sound, but an invisible bond that connects every Puerto Rican to their island, no matter where they are.
This set combines the magic of reading with the sensory experience of play, allowing children and families to experience the story beyond the pages.
The bilingual book fosters a love for reading in Spanish and English, while the Don Coquí plush toy with sound brings the character to life with its unmistakable song.
A meaningful gift for children, families in Puerto Rico and the diaspora, and for anyone who wants to keep the connection with the island alive.

Love it!! Mi hermoso nieto de un mes y nueve días está feliz con su nuevo juguete. ¡Qué vivan nuestras tradiciones y costumbres! Nuestro coquí viaja el mundo.
Me encanto la experiencia de esta primera compra. Fácil el proceso de pedido, fácil solicitar cambio de local, y fácil acceso al recogido de la mercancía. Por cierto, las casitas están hermosas!!!
Mi primer nieto, mi Diego Alexander, una bendición. Apenas con un mes de nacido ya disfruta del canto del coquí. No importa donde haya nacido, jamás olvidará parte de sus raíces por el lado maternal. Y con orgullo aprenderá a decir “Yo soy boricua aunque haya nacido en la luna” 🇵🇷
Hermoso el coqui. Les doy un 100% x 1000%.
Me encanto el libro el coqui y el cuento. Mi nieta quedo enamorada y ama a Su regalo.
Y ya appends a decir Coquii, Coqui, Coqui .Lol.
Gracias ❤️.
I love iit.
A mi hija le encantó el coqui. Ella siempre está en las noches escuchando en la naturaleza y siempre lo ha identificado siempre
Cuando lo tuvo en sus brazos por primera vez
Se emocionó mucho
Ahora ella duerme con el.
¡A mis estudiantes y a mí nos encantó Don Coquí! Lo acompañé con el libro Coquí in the City, de Nomar Pérez, y los niños se divirtieron mucho escuchando y cantando “El canto del coquí”. Fue una manera maravillosa de aprender más sobre Puerto Rico durante el Mes de la Herencia Hispana. ¡A los niños les encantó y definitivamente compraré más!
Está hermoso ! Compré el coqui con sonido para la nieta de mi amiga que son de raíces mexicanas. Le expliqué lo que era el Coqui y que era una ranita nativa de nuestra isla y la niña está encantada con su regalo y hasta duerme con ella. El sonido es hermoso y de muy buena calidad !
Mil gracias !
Mi hijo estudia en Tallahassee y siempre le lleva alguna cosita de Puerto Rico a sus roomates. Dos coquíes fueron a parar a las manos de un Chino y un Americano que quedaron locos con sus regalos.
Bought these for my daughter to read to my grandson, and I love that the books come in both Spanish and English. It gives me such peace knowing he’ll stay connected to his roots and to where our family comes from, even though he was born in the States. The stories are beautifully written, and the little coquí and rooster plush toys add a charming touch to the reading experience. I truly recommend these for every Boricua living in the diaspora.

Mi hija tiene una condición muy rara y no es verbal pero ama que le lean cuentos. El poder acompañar los cuentos con peluches ha sido todo un exito y nos ayuda mucho con trabajar la comumicación. Simpatiza mucho con Amapola aunque Tito el Satito siempre sera su favorito. Este cuento en particular nos toca mucho el corazon.
I hold a deep affection for the concept of having a tangible reminder of Puerto Rico, as it evokes cherished memories from my childhood. My grandparents passed away when I was young, and I have vivid recollections of growing up there. The sound of the Peluches and the ambiance of the houses are deeply ingrained in my heart. Puerto Rico will forever remain my home, regardless of my current location.
Thank you very much for creating these childhood memories back but also providing an opportunity for everyone to not only be able to read, hear the sounds of the beautiful Coqui, but also keep Puerto Rico alive throughout the country. I am a proud Puerto Rican and very blessed to have my childhood memories brought to life.
