Bookroo's summary

Iguana is excited to throw a fiesta, but her friends Tortuga, Gonejo, and Gulebra are too lazy to lend a hand. As she prepares invitations, stuffs the piñata, and cooks, they simply watch. Will Iguana's fiesta succeed without their help, or will her friends miss out on the fun? Discover this clever twist on a classic tale with a Mexican flair.

From the publisher

!Caramba! Iguana is planning a fiesta. Tortuga the tortoise, Gonejo the rabbit, and Gulebra the snake all want to come. But do they want to help Iguana deliver invitations or stuff the pinata or cook the food? No, no, and no! A lazy trio loses out in this clever update of the story of the Little Red Hen with a Mexican twist. A glossary of Spanish words is included.
