In this joyful and spirited collection, award-winning poet Pat Mora and fine artist Enrique 0. Sanchez celebrate the vivid landscape of the Southwest and the delightful rapport that children share with the natural world. Now in Spanish, Confeti is also an anthem to the power of a child's imagination and pride:
I say yo soy libre, I am free, free, free, free as confetti.
Translated from Confetti: Poems for Children, Confeti: Poems paras niños is a treasury to be shared with children everywhere.
