(2) K-3 Illustrated by Ashley Wolff. On Christmas Eve, Spanish-speaking family members cook a holiday meal, complete with "tamales, nachos y tostadas," and decorate their tree with "adornos navideños." The next morning they discover that Pancho Claus has visited, bringing plenty of joy and "regalitos." Inspired by Latino Christmas traditions, Orozco's "The Night Before Christmas" adaptation begs to be read aloud. Wolff's warm gouache and pastel illustrations emphasize family. Glos.

(3) PS Illustrated by David Diaz. In this bilingual book, Orozco's lively lyrics are combined with Diaz's bold illustrations. The nonsensical verses are difficult to translate, so the Spanish and English texts are completely different (a more literal translation is included at the end). Music for the song is appended.
