Join Pepe as
he celebrates his Mexican-American heritage by participating in a Hispanic Day
parade. Children will delight in seeing many Hispanic cultures proudly honored
in this joyous picture book.
Pepe wakes up energized to attend his
first Hispanic Day parade. With new food to taste, music to dance to, and a
parade to watch, Pepe couldn't be more excited to celebrate and share his
Hispanic heritage. Many of Pepe's friends also attend the festival, celebrating
their own Hispanic ties. Mexican, Dominican, Panamanian, Colombian, Honduran,
Nicaraguan, Chilean, Puerto Rican, Salvadoran, Guatemalan, and Cuban cultures
are all represented in the parade. A day filled with joy and pride, Pepe and
the Parade is a jubilant celebration of culture and identity.
With Spanish words effortlessly included
throughout, this title is a great introduction to the Spanish language. A
glossary of Spanish words, complete with English translations, and an
educational author's note provide useful tools for further learning and discussion.
