Catarina Sobral "Toi Toi Toi"

It’s bad luck to wish someone good luck before a show. Did you know that?

Noa, Óscar, Khadija, Sara, and Cheng are friends with a big idea—they want to put on a show! Each of them has their own vision. They write, rehearse, and sometimes clash. But despite their artistic differences, anything is possible!

This new picture book by award-winning illustrator Catarina Sobral invites us onstage for a lively, inclusive story about the magic of theatre, the power of teamwork, and the strength of friendship.

Ready? Lights, curtain, and... TOI TOI TOI!
