- Reading
- Read together and pause wherever a mistake is shared; let the child decide whether to comment or simply listen. You could try the included mistaco instructions later if cooking together appeals.
- Themes
- Making room for mistakes: Izzy’s mistakes come out while she makes tortillas with Lito; he says everyone makes mistakes, and the family then shares its own. The described response treats mistakes as something that can be shared without shame, using humour and a family meal.
- Worth knowing
- Izzy has a terrible day and initially wants to be left alone. If a child is sensitive to stories about school mishaps or embarrassment, you could check in about how the situation feels to them.
