This collection presents nineteen traditional Spanish-language Christmas carols along with English translations. Section introductions in both languages describe related holiday traditions. The song translations make occasional minor changes for the sake of rhythm and rhyme, but only when the general meaning can be preserved. Colorful illustrations of squat, doll-like figures display Latin American holiday practices. Includes music for six songs.
