What Can You Do with a Paleta?

by Carmen Tafolla

Book Overview

Where the paleta wagon rings its tinkly bell
and carries a treasure of icy paletas
in every color of the sarape . . .

As she strolls through her barrio, a young girl introduces readers to the frozen, fruit-flavored treat that thrills Mexican and Mexican-American children. Create a masterpiece, make tough choices (strawberry or coconut?), or cool off on a warm summer's day--there's so much to do with a paleta.
