While the three little tamales cool off on a windowsill, a tortilla rolls by. \"You’ll be eaten. You’d better run!\" he tells them. And so the tamales jump out the window. The first runs to the prairie and builds a house of sagebrush. The second runs to a cornfield and builds a house of cornstalks. The third runs to the desrt and builds a house of cactus. Then who should come along but Señor Lobo, the Big Bad Wolf, who plans to blow their houses down! Valeria Docampo’s oil-and-pencil illustrations add zest and humor to this rollicking southwestern version of a popular tale. | The Three Little Tamales by Eric A. Kimmel, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
