ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Get ready for a tasty treat! This book features Mexican food from A to Z, including burritos, enchiladas, menudo, salsa, and much more!
 
Some foods are spicy, and some are sweet.
Take a bite. . . . You’re in for a treat
of many delicious things to eat!
 
Kids love learning about food, they need to learn their ABC's, and this mouth-watering alphabet book about Mexican food covers both in the most delicious way! You'll see so much more than tacos as you flip through food from albóndigas to zanahoria. Each dish is brought to life with playful rhyming text, side-by-side phonetic pronunciation, and bright, engaging illustrations.
DIANE DE ANDA, a third-generation Latina, grew up in Los Angeles. She became a teacher, first of children and teens, and ultimately, a professor of social welfare at UCLA. Soon Diane began writing stories from the tales told to her by her great-grandparents and grandmother about their experiences during the Mexican Revolution and beyond. Realizing the need for children’s books in which Latino children could see themselves and their families, she also began to write books where they were the main characters. Diane is the author of several picture books, including Mango Moon, 21 Cousins, and The Day Abuela Got Lost.
 
EMILY MENDOZA is a Mexican American illustrator from Southern California. She journeyed all across the United States to receive her BFA in illustration from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY, and is now thriving in Queens! Growing up in CA, she was always surrounded by Mexican culture and tradition where she learned more about her Hispanic roots through her family, her communication, and illustration. She loves using bright colors and vivid textures to showcase diversity and bring out excitement in her work.
