Coques Still Sing: A Story of Home, Hope, and Rebuilding

A powerful story about home, community, and hope, inspired by the rebuilding of Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria in 2017, written by debut author Karina Gonzlez and illustrated by Krystal Quiles.

Co-qu, co-qu!The coqu frogs sing to Elena from her familys beloved mango treetheir calls so familiar that they might as well be singing, You are home, you are safe. But home is suddenly not safe when a hurricane threatens to destroy everything that Elena knows.

As time passes, Elena, alongside her community, begins to rebuild her home, planting seeds of hope along the way. When the sounds of the coques gradually return, they reflect the resilience and strength of Elena, her family, and her fellow Puerto Ricans.
