Celebrate! It's Cinco de Mayo! / ¡Celebremos! ¡Es el cinco de mayo!

(4) K-3 Translated by Miguel Arisa. Illustrated by Loretta Lopez. The history and traditions of this popular Mexican holiday are shown through one family's observance. The simple bilingual text is accessible (though some of the phrasing is awkward), and the illustrations are celebratory, if a bit static. Educators will appreciate the find-what's-missing pages and the illustrated craft projects. A useful author's note gives more historical information.
