great submitted by manz on July 30, 2018, 3:13pm A great middle grade read! I really enjoyed reading about Arturo's woes, that of course feature a happy ending.

The Zamora Family really sticks together! submitted by flemingj on June 26, 2019, 1:08pm Such a great book. I really enjoyed this story and getting to know Arturo and his extended family. I even learned a little about Cuba along the way and a few recipes to try.
