Book Overview

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 writes too fast, so no one could read the invitations if he wrote them. Tortuga can't deliver them because he walks so slowly. Culebra would be happy to help cook... if only...

Manana Iguana

My daughter got this book for her preschool class and they love listening to her read it again and again. The children remember the Spanish words and their meanings. The pictures really make this book special.

Look at the illustrations

If you don't study the illustrations, you'll miss a lot of extra humor. The writing is great, but the illustrations really add an extra twist of irony, as the excuses made by the friends look more and more foolish given their undescribed actions as drawn on the page. My kids love this book.

Loved it!

My son loves this book. He has several twists on "The Little Red Hen" and this one is one of his favorites. There isn't too much spanish to make the book too hard or lose his interest, but just enough to broaden his vocabulary.

Red hen with flare

I loved the story of The Little Red Hen when I was a child, but I'm going to read Manana Iguana to my children. The Colorful illustrations along with the great fiesta story make this book a must for my library. It was as much fun for me to read as it was for my daughter. The vibrant colors and character's personalities had us anticipating the turn of every page. I also love the story's bilingual element. If you grew up in a "spanglish" home, you absolutely need this book!
