Little ones can press buttons to hear each Spanish verse. &#8220;I got inspired by my 3-year-old,&#8221; says Segura. &#8220;I live here in the U.S. and I wanted to create something bilingual for us to enjoy together.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Like all of <span class=\"xn-location\">Cali&#8217;s<\/span> Books&#8217; sound books, <u><a href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4274376-1&amp;h=4072415972&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.calisbooks.com%2Fproducts%2Fcontemos&amp;a=Contemos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Contemos<\/a><\/u> is packed with educational benefits. Kids will learn how to count to five in Spanish, build their vocabularies, and sharpen their fine motor skills as they press buttons and turn pages to hear the next verse. Nursery rhymes are especially helpful for young learners, with rhyme and repetition that help reinforce new words and concepts.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But <u><a href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4274376-1&amp;h=4072415972&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.calisbooks.com%2Fproducts%2Fcontemos&amp;a=Contemos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Contemos<\/a><\/u> is so much more than a counting book\u2014it shares a very important message, too. Each elephant invites another to join the fun, showcasing the value of teamwork, community and collective joy. &#8220;It tells little ones that no one should be dancing alone,&#8221; Segura says. &#8220;Because dancing together is much more fun!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The book builds on Segura&#8217;s mission to center Latinx voices and stories. Her commitment to the community includes co-founding The Latinx House, creating the ADELANTE Directors Fellowship and co-founding Poderistas to empower the next generation of Latinas.
