Someone got this book for The Gremlin Little J (My son) and I am so excited to read it to him. I grew up in this area that takes place in the book and used to chase down the paletero man during the summer.

Paleteros are not part of my culture, but I was still able to appreciate the sense of community and the childhood excitement when one was about to get s treat.
