El Cucuy Is Scared, Too!: A Picture Book

by Donna Barba Higuera

Description

When the night feels too big and the shadows seem to whisper, even the legendary El Cucuy can’t help but feel nervous. In this warm, humorous picture book, a frightened child and a scared monster find common ground as they navigate what it means to be brave, ask for comfort, and try again. Through playful storytelling and vivid illustrations, the book explores fear, empathy, and the idea that courage can start small—one honest feeling at a time. Donna Barba Higuera’s signature blend of heart and cultural imagination brings a gentle twist to a familiar bedtime figure, making this a perfect read for bedtime routines and big feelings.
