What do you get when you cross The Little Red Hen with a burro and his friends? Burro's Tortillas In this humorous Southwestern retelling of a childhood favorite, Burro finds it difficult to get any help from his friends as he diligently works to turn corn into tortillas.
Young children will love the repetition; older children will enjoy the book's many puns.
In addition to its Southwestern -flavor, - the delightful story imparts an accurate picture of the traditional way that tortillas are made.
A Spanish/English glossary and a simple recipe for making tortillas are included in the -For Creative Minds- section.
