When they fall asleep, they wake to put the final touches on the piñata just in time. The Spanish text is fun to read, especially aloud, as each page is filled with rhythm and silliness. Appealing colored pencil and digital illustrations pull readers into this bright world, sharing the work each character contributes and building anticipation of a special event. Text for the traditional piñata song is included along with instructions on creating your own piñata and a glossary of terms.\u003cbr\u003e VERDICT This work is another wonderful addition to Spanish-language collections for children.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- -

La piñata que la campesina colgó

Coming September 23, 2025. Pre-order today!

By Samantha R. Vamos / Illustrated by Sebastià Serra

It's someone's birthday. Feliz Cumpleaños!

Una niña sale a hacer las gestiones del día, y mientras está fuera, la campesina prepara una piñata desde cero con la ayuda de un niño, un caballo, un ganso, un gato, una oveja y un granjero. Luego de quedarse dormidos bajo el sol de la tarde, ellos tienen que apresurarse a terminar los preparativos a tiempo—justo cuando la niña regresa a su fiesta sorpresa.

Esta es la historia de cómo la campesina y todos los animales y amigos de la granja trabajan juntos para hacer la piñata para el cumpleaños sorpresa. Con la familiaridad de The House That Jack Built, esta historia se construye como su piñata con las repeticiones de las páginas anteriores. Incluso, el texto final incluye instrucciones de cómo hacer una piñata en casa. Incorporando ingeniosamente las rimas y la repetición, ¡La piñata que la campesina colgó es una celebración que divertirá y cautivará a los pequeños lectores!

A farm maiden enlists the help of her farm friends to build a piñata for a special celebration. Borrowing the style of "The House that Jack Built," the story unfolds as each part of the piñata is gathered - It's a birthday bash from the boy who shaped the barro to the sorpresa at the end! Now in Spanish.

Back matter includes the lyrics to La Canción de la Piñata (The Piñata Song), instructions for how to make your own piñata, and a glossary. 

Listen to author Samantha Vamos talk about The Piñata That the Farm Maiden Hung.
