Mapache quiere ser el primero cover

Raccoon wants to be the best at everything, but a new arrival in the forest teaches him that being first isn't the most important thing in life.

In Mapache quiere ser el primero, we follow the ambitious Raccoon, who strives to be the best at everything he does. His determination often leads him to success, but his world is turned upside down when Fox enters the forest. This unexpected arrival challenges Raccoon's perspective on competition and success, prompting him to reevaluate what truly matters in life. Through their interactions, readers are introduced to the joys and pitfalls of being overly competitive.

As Raccoon navigates through his feelings of rivalry, the story unfolds with delightful moments of humor and insightful lessons. The adventure serves as a gentle reminder that while striving for excellence can be admirable, it is the relationships we build and the joy we find in our pursuits that truly define our happiness. The narrative encourages children to understand that being first isn't everything, and that collaboration and friendship often lead to more fulfilling experiences.

Written by child psychologist Susanna Isern, Mapache quiere ser el primero is not just an entertaining tale, but also a valuable resource for parents and educators. It addresses the potential negative impact of excessive competition on children's emotional well-being. This book, featuring charming illustrations, aims to foster discussions about self-worth, friendship, and the importance of enjoying the journey rather than fixating on being the best.
