    Shell-abrate a joyous Latine Easter tradition, with Toti and his family in this upbeat bilingual story, available in Spanish!

    What are cascarones: Cascarones are empty egg shells that have been colored, filled with paper confetti, and sealed!

    The hunt is on to figure out who will be the reigning champ of Cascarones, and Toti knows that he has his family beat. His parents are too easy, they make old-school cascarones with confetti inside. His sister, Carlita wishes she could create cascarones like him, and his Abuela doesn't even stand a chance. When the day of Cascarones arrives, will Toti seize his moment or will it be scrambled when he learns someone has switched his cascarones for fake ones!

    With a cheeky twist at the end, readers will laugh and relish at the antics of Toti and his family in this exuberant bilingual story.
    Sara Andrea Fajardo has been on a life-long path of telling stories: first as a photojournalist, then as a multimedia storyteller for humanitarian aid organizations, and now as a children's writer. She has lived in Peru, Finland, Japan, Kenya and currently resides in the San Francisco Bay Area, with her husband and two children. View titles by Sara Andrea Fajardo
