Long ago in Puerto Rico's magical rainforest of El Yunque, the
little tree frogs had no voice. Surrounded by the forest's
magnificent chorus, they felt too small to matter-until one
starlit night when everything changed.
When the Three Kings-Melchor, Gaspar, and Baltazar-lose their
way in the misty forest on Three Kings Eve, young Celeste knows
she must help, even though others say she's too tiny to make a
difference. With courage, cleverness, and the power of community,
Celeste discovers her voice and creates a song that will echo
through Puerto Rico forever.
