Diego dreams of being a wizard so he can make the world a better place by fighting global warming. When he realizes that he can’t really perform magic, Diego thinks of ways he can help save the world by considering many potential careers and what it would take to achieve them. Filled with “Big Kid Boxes” that explain the crucial scientific concepts that lie behind the scenes depicted, this inspirational story gives children an opportunity to exercise their own magical dreams.

Lleno de recuadros “Big Kid” que explican los importantes conceptos científicos que hay detrás de las escenas retratadas, este cuento inspirante les da a los niños la oportunidad de poner en marcha sus propios sueños mágicos.
