Description

Adela ama todo sobre la banda mariachi de su familia, ¡excepto que ella no forma parte de la banda! Poniendo un foco de atención en la música mexicana, llena de instrumentos y bailes, ¡La banda de Adela seguramente será un éxito!

Adela no desea nada más que ser parte de la banda mariachi de su familia, pero cuando intenta tocar los diferentes instrumentos, todo sale mal. La trompeta hace un ruido extraño, la vihuela emite un ruido agudo y desagradable, y cuando intenta bailar, Adela se cae al suelo. Observando a su familia, Adela sabe que la práctica hace al maestro, ¿pero podrá encontrar una manera de ser parte de la banda en el entretanto?

Contado en una estructura repetitiva y divertida, ¡este libro ilustrado rítmico incorpora divertidos sonidos de instrumentos y vocabulario en español!
