This is a terrific book which can serve a variety of purposes. It would work well in a early grades or preschool classroom studying multi-cultural themes, Mexican culture or Spanish language. The story itself has lessons of trying hard, finding your own way and family. I would recommend this book for pre-k through 1st grade teachers, families looking to introduce some Spanish or anyone looking for a good story. Reading it to my active 3 year old, he was interested in the story but did not care as much about the cultural lessons - which is why I think it might be more interesting to a 4, 5, 6 aged child. Coupled with some actual music and other development, this could be a great title to use in a library story time as well.
