¿Qué Puedes Hacer Con Una Paleta? (What Can You Do with a Paleta Spanish Edition) - Paperback

by Carmen Tafolla (Author), Magaly Morales (Illustrator)

As she strolls through her barrio, a young girl introduces readers to the frozen, fruit-flavored treat that thrills Mexican and Mexican-American children.

In this bilingual paperback edition, discover the joys of a paleta--the traditional Mexican popsicle treat sold from the wagon with the tinkly bell that brings children running from every direction. Create a masterpiece, make tough choices (strawberry or coconut?), or cool off on a warm summer's day--there's so much to do with a paleta.
