Description
Iguana wants to throw a party! She asks her friends for help, but they come up with excuses. Conejo writes too fast, Tortuga can't deliver the invitations because he walks so slowly, and Culebra would love to cook, but he doesn't have arms. In the end, Iguana's three friends realize they've let her down and decide to make it up to her. They come up with a plan to help clean up after the party, and their friendship is stronger because of it. Bright, cartoonish illustrations bring this simple tale to life, and a glossary explains all the Spanish words used in the story. This book is a great read-aloud with a heartwarming ending, making it perfect for sharing with children who love fiesta fun and learning about easy Spanish vocabulary.
