Fiesta Fireworks

(2) K-3 Tultepec, near Mexico City, is famous for its fireworks. Ancona's fine photographs and essay follow a family of 'pirotecnicos' as they build their fireworks displays for the fiesta honoring the town's patron saint, San Juan de Dios. Facts about the displays are sometimes sketchy, but teachers will value the cultural information, and readers of all ages will be drawn to the splash of the pyrotechnics and the experience of 'carnival'.
