In this bilingual legend, Kiki Kokí tries to convince his friends that the strange creature discovered in the Borikén rainforest is not an alien from another world, but a newly hatched parrot chick that needs their help.
 
Inspired by the work done to rescue and repopulate Puerto Rico’s only indigenous parrot, “Kiki Kokí: The Legend of the Borikén Rainforest” is a story of discovery and empathy. Through this colorful adventure, children learn about the importance of caring for those most vulnerable, and not to make assumptions of others just because they are different.

Designed and printed to the same size and quality of the first two Kiki Kokí books, The Legend of the Borikén Rainforest is a beautifully printed 10.5” x 10.5” picture book with dust cover. All books ordered on KikiKoki.com include a sketch and signature by the author and artist Ed Rodriguez.

In the original legend, Kiki Kokí spends thirty days as a coquí frog in the Frog Village. It’s during this time period that this new story takes place. In Kokí’s latest adventure, we meet Poncie the Turtle. Poncie has discovered a map to the Enchanted Fountain of Borikén. Legend has it that he who discovers the Enchanted Fountain, will make new friends and see many magical places. 

Visitors to Puerto Rico are soon familiar with the Coqui Frog, a tiny tree frog who’s song fills the island’s balmy nights. The Kiki Kokí storybook tells the legend of the Coquí through bold and beautiful color illustrations. A captivating adventure that introduces all the children of the world to the beloved Coquí.

In this legend, Kiki Koki, is a fun-loving Taino Indian boy would rather play than help his tribe. To teach him a lesson, the Moon Goddess turns him into a golden tree frog. Only when Kiki Koki saves a village of frogs from rascally rat pirates, does he prove that he has earned the right to become a boy again.
