Text Review(s)
"Manolito, 10, is back with more zany
adventures to share. His life is filled with hysterical anecdotes ranging from
his weekend foot-bathing boycott as a member of the Filthy Feet Gang to his
brief and disastrous stint as a hairdresser for his brother, "The
Bozo." Manolito’s world, the Spanish neighborhood of Carabanchel, is
full of eccentric and memorable characters guaranteed to make readers laugh out
loud. Kids will both relate to and root for the lovable and spunky protagonist
and enjoy the humorous cartoons that accompany his escapades. Readers can look
forward to more adventures because as Manolito says, ‘Make room on the
shelf because this is only the beginning.’"
