Squirrel Monkey (Bilingual Children's Book) - Spanish/English
Author: Elizabeth Álvarez Alfaro
Illustrator: Jesús Gabán
Set in the rainforest of Latin America, Squirrel Monkey is a thoughtful tale about acceptance and the power of mindfulness. Cori, the playful squirrel monkey, is sometimes overwhelmed by his “big feelings,” especially when the noisy bustle of the jungle gets to be too much for the little monkey. While the other animals struggle to soothe Cori’s distress, his mother demonstrates the power of slow meditative breathing to balance emotions and help Cori find a place of “calm and quiet” in the busy jungle.
