Meet Reyna, the visually impaired Queen of Oaxaca City, Mexico, who sees the world in a way most people never imagine. When she declares "Close Your Eyes, Open Your Heart" Day, the entire city receives free blindfolds and an unforgettable invitation: experience the true beauty of Mexico through senses beyond sight. As the community explores their culture through taste, touch, sound, and smell-savoring delicious food, swaying to vibrant music, and discovering connection in new ways-they learn that the richest experiences come from the heart, not the eyes. This enchanting story celebrates cross-cultural understanding, introduces Spanish vocabulary, and explores heart-centered leadership while fostering empathy for those with different abilities. Young readers will discover that true vision comes from opening your heart to the world around you. Written by a Canadian author and beautifully hand-illustrated by a Mexican-Canadian artist, The Stellar Queen of Oaxaca is a sensory journey that transforms how children see-and feel-the world.
