The Three Little Tamales

Three Little Tamales by Eric A. Kimmel, illus. by Valeria Docampo, Marshall Cavendish Children, 2009, hc, 40 pp. Ages: 4-8.

In this clever spoof based on the three little pigs, three little tamales leave their mother to create new homes, and in the process, foil senor Lobo. We have read this so many times to the 3-year-old twins, we could probably recite this in our sleep.

Eric A. Kimmel is a prolific writer of children's books.
