What Are You Doing?

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Manuel Monroy. Chepito doesn't want to go to school. He encounters various people in his neighborhood, all of whom are reading. His repeated query, "Why, why, why?" (which grows a little tiresome) elicits different responses that demonstrate the reasons reading and education are so important. Warm-hued pictures illustrate Chepito's quest toward knowledge and enlightenment.
