Una alegre introducción bilingüe a los queridos dichos mexicanos, en español e inglés. Los artistas Ralfka Gonzalez y Ana Ruiz reunieron sus refranes favoritos durante sus viajes por México y Estados Unidos, y aquí les dan vida con exuberantes pinturas de arte popular llenas de color. Repletos de sabiduría y optimismo, estos dichos nos recuerdan que "después de la lluvia sale el sol" y que hay que "cantar todos los días para espantar las penas". Abejorros que tocan bongós y gallos que cantan sin parar habitan esta celebración de la vida y la cultura, con introducción de Sandra Cisneros.
