Description
Ernesto has waited his whole life to become a niño grande. Now he's finally old enough to walk to school without his parents, and every morning, his mom hands him a shiny new quarter with one important reminder: they're for emergencies.
Each day reveals a tempting new treat to enjoy with his friends - crisp packs of baseball cards, arcade games, hot tamales, and fresh juices! Ernesto has the coins jingling in his pocket, so he must decide how to spend them. Will he save up for something special or indulge in a tasty surprise?
A poignant and playful tale about making choices and being prepared for life's unexpected moments.
