I like how this book is bilingual, the flaps are cute for younger kids but it is very repetitive every page with Kiki always saying the exact same thing no matter what is said to her. It teaches kids about perseverance even when things seem impossible.

This was such a cute book! I love that Kiki didn't get discouraged, even when her friends were full of "What ifs." I especially loved that she didn't fly in the way you expected a bird to. The added Spanish/English words at the end of the book are a nice touch. While you can figure out what they mean, having the pronunciation for each word was a fantastic touch. The illustrations were very well done. I'm excited to share this with friends.

I received the book from netgalley for my honest review. This story about a chicken dream is really cute. It was written in Spanish and English. Great lesson for younger children. Highly recommended.

Another lift the flap board book from this creator. It was cute as the reader follows Kiki telling herself she may not be able to but she is going to try! This book is presented in English and Spanish and great for beginning little toddlers to chew on and enjoy story of.

The chicks from the Cánticos series are just the cutest! My family got to know them during the pandemic when they sang bilingual songs on Nickelodeon. I was so excited when @encantos sent us a copy of Kiki Can!

This bilingual story is one of never giving up, even when those around you say you can’t do it! The illustrations are bright and beautiful and offer peekaboo flaps on most of the pages for a more interactive read.

My 4yo son has loved this book ever since it arrived. He asks me at least 7 times a day to read it. He is trying to learn how to read and loves to find the peekaboo pictures first. My 7yo daughter has been trying to teach herself Spanish, so this could not have arrived at a more perfect time.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from this whole family!

Kiki wants to fly, and for a little chick, it is impossible, said others. And Kiki tried. An interactive book that you can lift the flap, can give you hope like Kiki does. How to reach your dream, is important for little kids. Though they are now still small in stature, but they can always try until they can.

I love lift-the-flap books and this one was great and interactive. I think kids will definitely love this and it will get them thinking about problem solving and what is going to happen next in the story.

This is a gorgeous children's board book, which has easy to read words, and beautiful, vibrant images. Kiki the chick wants to learn how to fly, and she tries very hard to do so. What can she do to help her to fly like the other birds? This is a cute story, with lots of beautiful animals, which I enjoyed. There are flaps in the book which can be lifted up, and this will delight children, as they see what is underneath each flap. Each sentence is written in english and spanish, which is superb for children to absorb (and adults too!)

Many thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I love the Catnicos English-Spanish book series. It is awesome being able to learn a new language in a fun way. This was a cute story about never giving up on your dreams. There is even a Canticos YouTube channel to help little ones learn even more https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFJJziTVsiIVSyRKvXHX37g
