This little girl has tried everything to make her loose tooth come out before her dadas birthday (except letting her brother yank it) so sheall have money to buy him a gift. Nothing has worked and now itas the big day. She just canat go to his party empty handed At the last second, her mom helps her think of a gift that doesnat require any moneyajust imagination and heart. "I have no dinero, this cardas all Iave got. / But, Papi, te quiero, I love you a lot." And her dad couldnat be happier.
Susan Middleton Elyaas trademark mix of Spanish vocabulary and fun verse combined with vibrant paintings by Jenny Mattheson will inspire lots of homemade gifts (and patience with loose teeth).
