Sale price $13.59

Nico thinks it's a mess. Everyone tells him so sometimes: his father, his mother, even his favorite teacher, Miss Montse. He would like to be different, to do things well, to show his brother how much he loves him, to behave like the child heroes of the fairy tales. But he can't think of a way to do it. One night, before falling asleep, he receives a strange visit from Tanwo, a friendly and mysterious dinosaur. Nico doesn't know where Tanwo comes from or why he has chosen him for an important mission. Will he be able to pull it off?

Spanish Description: Nico piensa que es un desastre. Todos se lo dicen a veces: su padre, su madre, hasta su maestra preferida, la señorita Montse. A él le gustaría ser diferente, hacer las cosas bien, demostrar a su hermano cuánto le quiere, comportarse como los niños héroes de los cuentos. Pero no se le ocurre cómo lograrlo. Una noche, antes de quedarse dormido, recibe la extraña visita de Tanwo, un simpático y misterioso dinosaurio. Nico no sabe de dónde sale Tanwo ni por qué lo ha elegido a él para una importante misión. ¿Será capaz de llevarla a cabo?
