Rhode Montijo.
Before Little League tryouts, rabbit Luis's papi tells him about some funny baseball superstitions. Luis soon connects his own baseball success with eating supermarket samples and relies on them to play well. Luis's dad declares, "Qué loco"--performing well comes from "practice and listening to your coach." Colorful acrylic-on-canvas illustrations capture Luis's dilemma. Spanish words are sprinkled throughout.
