Multicultural Book of the Week: Mexican-American Culture

If you are looking for a book to read with your son/daughter to help them understand different cultures, here is a recommendation for you!


Too Many Tamales by Gary Soto is about a Mexican-American who tries on her mother's wedding ring on while she is making tamales for Christmas dinner. Unfortunately - the ring ends up missing in the process of her making tamales. Maria is sure it is in one of the tamales, and she and her cousins try to eat their way out of trouble.


Read this delightful book and discuss it with your child for hours of enjoyment!
