PS
Pint-sized Niño, fearless luchador and reluctantly attentive big brother, dons his red mask, ready to take on all comers. He battles a series of imagined foes from Mexican history and popular culture before facing the trickiest of opponents, las hermanitas! Working in digital collage, Morales packs every polychromatic double-page spread with action, trying--not quite successfully, fortunately--to contain Niño's energy within their frames.
