Summary

Now available in Spanish, this festive twist on The Little Red Hen is sure to delight young Spanish-speaking and bilingual readers.

Iguana wants to throw a party! Everyone thinks it's a great idea, but when she asks her friends to help, they're full of excuses. Conejo moves too fast to hang the streamers without tearing them. Tortuga can't deliver invitations because he walks so slowly. Culebra would be happy to help cook...if only he had arms. Maybe mañana, Iguana!  

But when Iguana doesn't let them join the party, Tortuga, Culebra, and Conejo realize they've let their friend down.  Tired out from hard work and good fun, Iguana goes to sleep—she'll clean up mañana—and her three friends come up with a way to make it up to her and fix their friendship.

Bright, cartoonish illustrations bring this simple tale to life, and the smooth translation makes for a musical Spanish-language read-aloud with a heartwarming ending.
