Books:
Abuela by Arthur Dorros, Elisa Kleven (Illustrator)
A Hispanic-American child imagines she's rising into the air over the park and flying away with her abuela (grandmother). From the air, they see Manhattan streets, docks, an airport, tourist attractions, and Rosalba's father's office. Text is simple and can be enjoyed as a read aloud or as a read alone. Spanish words and phrases are integrated within the English text. A glossary provided as an appendix provides definitions and pronunciations. Illustrations portray an energetic, multiethnic city.
Callendo hacia arriva by Shel Silverstain
A collection of humorous poems and drawings.
Cinco de Mayo by Mary Dodson Wade, Nanci Reginelli Vargus
Cinco de Mayo outlines the events that led up to the Battle of Puebla in remarkably simple terms, and then shows various aspects of contemporary festivities, including a
mariachi band, dancers, and parades. Presenting only the basics, the book will leave many children with questions, including the location of Mexico. The pictures and words
combine to offer a wonderful introduction to the holiday. A vocabulary review is at the end of the book.
Colors of Mexico by Lynn Ainsworth Olawsky, Janice Lee Porter (Illustrator)
Ten colors are presented in double-page spreads, with 4-to-10 sentences that describe an aspect of Mexico that relates to that color. For example, white is for the skeletons of
the Day of the Dead; green for Mayan jade jewelry; and orange for the monarch butterflies that winter in the Sierra Madres. Large, cheery oil paintings done in bright hues and
with bold strokes reflect the countryside and various aspects of Mexican culture. This book is useful as a visual introduction to a study on Mexico.
