Nico Can Try Again! - ¡Nico puede intentarlo otra vez!: A Bilingual English-Spanish Picture Book for Preschoolers About "I Can't," Not Yet, and Trying (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798186287346)

For every little "I can't!" moment, one gentle word keeps the door open: yet. Nico wants to zip his jacket all by himself before going to Abuela's garden. But the zipper slips. Then it slips again. His cheeks get hot, his hands squeeze tight, and out comes the big feeling: "I can't!" Abuela does not rush in to fix it. She stays close, calm, and kind. With "not yet", Nico learns that trying again can be brave, even when something feels hard. Nico Can Try Again! - Nico puede intentarlo otra vez! is a warm bilingual English-Spanish picture book for preschoolers about frustration, independence, and the power of trying one small step again.
