A funny, whimsical story that teaches kids they don't have to conform to gender roles. El hada Rosa has a job to do-she grants kids' wishes. But when kids start to wish for things that she thinks aren't proper for their gender, she gets upset and refuses to grant their wishes. In her anger, she begins to realize that she too does not want to follow the role she's been given. Themes of nonconformity, overcoming stereotypes, and self-expression. Available in Spanish and English. Winner of the VIII Narrating Equality Award.
