Book Fiesta! by Pat Mora

Book Fiesta! is a beautifully illustrated book about all the places you can read. You can read in an airplane, at the library, or a submarine, in a hot air balloon, or even on an elephant. The point is that children can read anywhere and that's all part of the Book Fiesta! and celebrating Children's day or Dia de los ninos.
Pat Mora first heard of Dia de los ninos in 1996 and thought it was a great idea to celebrate children, but why not add to that and celebrate children AND books. So on or around April 30th he and others encourage people to celebrate children, but also celebrate children reading. What a great idea Mr. Mora!
