When common cures for the hiccups don't help their younger brother, Maria and Carlos try storytelling. As Hector listens to a tale starring his stuffed bear, the toddler's hiccups vanish, and in the end, Hector starts sneezing instead. Easy sentences, mild humor, and child-driven problem solving make the story a good choice for beginning readers. Watercolor illustrations effectively support the text.
