A Delightful Introduction to Spanish
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I read this delightful folk tale to my two daughters aged four and seven. They were excited to learn a few words of Spanish and now say "delicioso and rico" when they like a dish. We are planning on a trip to a Mexican restaurant to try some mole. I highly recommend this book. L.M. Greensboro, NC

I am 12 years old and I read this book to my younger sister, she absalutly loved it! She said she liked it because it had a happy ending and there were some Spanish words in it. Even though I am not in this books targeted age range, I think it is an awsome book, too.

This is a wonderful fable about the origin of mole sauce. The author captures the spirit of the little boy underfoot in the kitchen perfectly. Children who spend time in the kitchen with parents will have a special interest.
