Amelia's Show-and-Tell Fiesta / Amelia y la fiesta de "muestra y cuenta"

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Martha Aviles. Recent immigrant Amelia decides to wear her fiesta dress from Cuba for show-and-tell. At school she discovers that all the other show-and-tell items are in a basket, but all ends well when she demonstrates how her dress "talks" when she dances. The bilingual text and colorful illustrations nicely incorporate images from Amelia's island life.
