Raccoon Wants to Be First

"A lesson on boastfulness....Salaberria’s meticulous, soft-colored pencil illustrations of a surreal desert landscape and careful depictions of the animal friends, who resemble nothing more than a group of preschoolers, have plenty of detail to satisfy a curious child.A sweet, feel-good tale with a satisfying conclusion." - Kirkus Reviews

"A fun adventure to teach us that “being first” is not the most important thing. Excessive competition can be negative and can sometimes bring anguish to children…. All of [NubeOcho’s] books promote respectful attitude towards all types of diversity. They are also a playful medium that makes it easier to engage in first experiences and feelings that the little ones may not easily understand." - The Review Wire
