A Summer Day, a Paletero, and a Neighborhood

A hot summer day and the call of a paleta seller provide the starting point for this picture book. The supplied description connects the search for a frozen treat with a celebration of community, making paletas more than a detail of the setting: they are what brings the neighborhood into view. With text by Lucky Diaz and art by Micah Player, *Paletero Man* centers an everyday summer pleasure and the people who share in it.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children interested in stories about food and summer
  • Families seeking picture books with a community theme
