About This Book

Scholastic and Latin Grammy nominee Rita Rosa Ruesga have rejoined to bring a new book of songs for all ages from the Hispanic tradition. Among the fourteen new songs are "Antón Piruero," "Las mañanitas," and "A la rueda rueda." Full of beautiful illustrations by Soledad Sebastián and a brief description of the origin of each song, La Piñata/The Piñata also includes music notation and guitar chords for each tune and a link from which the songs — sung by the author — can be downloaded.
