Papa Gave Me a Stick
Summary
When Antonio first hears the members of the Mariachi band play, he wants nothing more than a guitar of his own. But guitars cost money, explains his father, who hands Antonio a stick instead. Confused and upset, Antonio resentfully accepts his father's gift. He heads off, unknowingly starting a chain of exchanges that may, miraculously, earn him what he wants most.
Filled with plenty of Spanish vocabulary for young readers, Papa Gave Me a Stick is a vibrant story about the virtues and rewards of kindness.
