From School Library Journal Kindergarten-Grade 3 - Young readers will immediately be drawn to this book by the vivid, colorful illustrations created from fabrics, paints, ink, and paper. A fun read-aloud, this book could also be used to introduce rainforest plants and animals, as well as for a study of art techniques. - Anne L. . All rights reserved. Combining elements of a trickster tale and a cumulative story, the rhyming narrative describes how Tico Tango makes his way through the rainforest, snatching a yellow lemon
Must have I'm originally from Costa Rica and long ago was looking for a good book for my daughter that will have some of the Costa Rican flavor. Well, we found a fun story that rimes and is fun for her to read and dance at the end. Love it and definetely must have. We now give it at every birthday party. It has become our little Costa Rican treasure.. The Parrot Tico Tango B. Laduke My 6 year old son is obsessed with this book. We originally took it out from the library. He insisted reading it every night until he could memorize it. He loved it so much we bought it for his birthday. He loves the rythm of the book, all the fruit and colors. He can read it on his own now and wants to take it to school to share with his class. It is also available in Spanish - I think I'd like to read that version as well.. Czechkate1 said Someone should write a song. Our three-year old loves this book and so do we. The text is engaging and the beautiful illustrations compliment it perfectly. We love the end, which leaves children with a good message and motivates for further activity afterward (dancing). Someone should write a song to follow the story. And yes, The Parrot Tico Tango is a proof that the best books don't have to be the most expensive ones.
