Martina una cucarachita muy linda: Un cuento cubano

I love how the story brings cultural traditions to life for young readers. I'm curious what motivated this particular tale to be shared now.

Martina’s boldness made me smile, but I wondered if that was intentional to teach kids about self-acceptance or if it might come across differently to young readers.

The vibrant artwork really brought the folktale to life. I wonder if the illustrator worked closely with the author to capture the cultural essence.
