For multicultural units or a celebration of International Day, this book will add a touch of spice. Pablo's parents own a panaderia/bakery and when he has to bring something to school for International Day, he decides that he will bring a taste treat that is a mixture of both parents: Jalapeno Bagels. Recipes are included for Chango bars and the bagels which are from an authentic Mexican-Jewish-American bakery in Arcata, California. Rich watercolor paintings extend the story and convey a feeling of family togetherness.
