A brief rhyming text, accompanied by brilliant-hued acrylic art, describes how children take part in the Peruvian festival of Inti Raymi, honoring the sun god. The lengthy back matter includes a description of Inti Raymi as well as other festivals; the history and people of Peru, Machu Picchu, and the Andes; plus a map and miscellaneous country facts.
