Eight animals-ocho animales-get together to whip up a cake. Everyone brings an important ingredient, and soon they will have a wonderful pastel. But when the timer dings and everyone wants to take the cake out of the oven, they end up dropping the whole thing all over the floor. What a mess! With some creative thinking from Cow-Vaca-and a little dinero, too, the surprise at the end is worth the wait. Perfect for non-Spanish speakers as well as Spanish speakers learning English, this is a delightful book about cooking, eating, and the love of good friends.

But they also are treated as members of the family, used as the cause celebre of social movements, and made the subject of art, film, and poetry. Such contradictions motivate these unique ethnographers to venture into social worlds most people know about only in pas
