Little Monkey's Costume by Anna Fité

“El Disfraz de Monito” invites young readers into the lively world of Monito and the Mikicos family as they prepare for a costume party. Monito can’t decide what outfit to wear—and time is running out. With brightly coloured illustrations and a rewarding 18×18 cm format (20 pages), this hardcover children’s book offers both engaging story-telling and a subtle message of empowerment.

Written by Anna Fité and illustrated by Sigrid Martínez, the book belongs to the “Monito” collection published by Carambuco Ediciones in March 2023. It is targeted primarily at children around 3-5 years old, making it a suitable read for early childhood and preschool settings.

Beyond the fun and colourful dress-up adventure, the story incorporates a socially meaningful theme: it is aligned with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal 5 (Gender Equality), emphasising that costumes—and choices—are not limited by stereotypes. 

Ideal for gift-giving, early readers, or shared storytelling, this book supports both imaginative play and discussions about self-expression. Whether at home, in daycare or in a classroom, “El Disfraz de Monito” stands out for its blend of fun, educational value and inclusive message.
