(4) K-3 Illustrated by Dani Jones. Gustavo is the only member of his family who can't play an instrument. He tries his brother's violín, his uncle's trompeta, and his father's guitarrón, but comes into his own when he discovers his talent for cantar. Deep-hued caricature illustrations (some over-the-top) trace Gustavo's emerging sense of self. Glos.
Reviewer: Elissa Gershowitz
