In this Spanish-language companion to Mama's Magnificent Dancing Plantitas, little Jesos is given the very important task of tending to Mama's houseplants one afternoon. From sharing his best jokes with the Golden Pothos to dancing with the Peace Lily, he's the best Chief Plant Officer in town- until things take an unexpected turn . . .

When Jesos gets home after school, he has his usual routine- do homework, daydream, do small chores here and there around the house . . . but one day, Mama appoints him honorable Chief Plant Officer, Branch Manager, AND big brother to her precious houseplants! Jesos does an excellent job keeping them hydrated, entertained, and happy-until one plant has an accident and throws Jesos's entire job into crisis mode . . .

Following the hit success Papa's Magical Water-Jug Clock, here's another high-spirited adventure with little Jesos that will stir up chuckles and warm hearts all around-now in Spanish!

Reviews for Las Magníficas Plantitas Bailadoras de Mamá (Mamá's Magnificent Dancing Plantitas)

""A companion to the resplendent Papá’s Magical Water-Jug Clock, Trejo and Kinkz’s latest collaboration amuses with similar madcap humor and shenanigans, focusing on [a] supportive mother-son relationship….the miniature scamp’s hijinks and wry observations bring the laughs to the forefront."" —Kirkus Reviews “Once again, Jesús is back with an entertaining and hilarious adventure about an innocent misunderstanding. Not only does this one teach you about plants and how to care for them, (and what not to do with them), it's laugh-out-loud funny!” – Bookpeople “I love everything about this book. I love the scribbly art, I love the mix of English and Spanish, I love all the expressions on the plants, and I love Jesús and his adorable novela-esk dramatics…. A cute, hilarious book about plants, dealing with boredom, and learning what to do when you break something precious.” – Barbara’s Bookstore “Jesus Trejo did it again! A beautiful book accompanied with amazing illustrations! It is always so refreshing and moving when I stumble on a children's book that reminds me of my upbringing.” – Wild Sisters Book Club
