About the Author:
George Ancona lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
From School Library Journal:
Grade 1-3?This stunning photo-essay describes the explosive happenings surrounding the celebration of the feast day of San Juan de Dios, the patron saint of Tultepec, Mexico, a town famous for its master pyrotechnists. Ancona introduces Caren, her family, and neighbors as they prepare for this elaborate annual fiesta. With the building of bamboo frameworks for papier-mache bulls and spinning wheels of rockets, the town is ready to celebrate. This wonderful event, captured in sharp full-color photographs, includes a mass procession, with the patron saint's statue carried over a carpet of colored sawdust; crackling fireworks; and whistling rockets exploding in the night sky in dazzling designs. An informative tribute to an enduring Mexican tradition, with exciting visuals and a basic glossary of Spanish terms.?Selene S. Vasquez, Orange Brook Elementary School, Hollywood, FL
