Description



Book Synopsis



A vibrant picture book celebrating the strength of community and the tastes of summer from Latin Grammy-winning musician Lucky Diaz and celebrated artist Micah Player.

Ring! Ring! Ring! Can you hear his call? Paletas for one! Paletas for all!

What's the best way to cool off on a hot summer day? Run quick and find Paletero José!

Follow along with our narrator as he passes through his busy neighborhood in search of the Paletero Man. But when he finally catches up with him, our narrator's pockets are empty. Oh no! What happened to his dinero? It will take the help of the entire community to get the tasty treat now.

Full of musicality, generosity, kindness, and ice pops, this book is sure to satisfy fans of Thank You, Omu! and Carmela Full of Wishes.

Includes Spanish words and phrases throughout, an author's note from Lucky Diaz, and a link to a live version of the Lucky Band's popular song that inspired the book.



Review Quotes



[A] homage to Mexican culture--both in Mexico and in the U.S. The story is as delightful as a juicy paleta de horchata or melón, and highly recommended.--De Colores: The Raza Experience in Books for Children

Paletero Man is a celebration of a culturally specific experience - but the juicy and colorful world inside makes this story accessible and welcoming for all readers.--Tori Kerr of SiriusXM Kids Place Live

Love this book!

Both sets of my grandparents lived in Boyle Heights and I went to elementary school in the area. This book takes me back to my childhood and I'm so happy to read it to my kids.
