1 comments about 50 things you should know about Carlos Mencia.(50 THINGS)(Biography): An article from: Latino Leaders.
- Literally, it's a list of 50 sentences about Carlos Mencia, and a few of them are repetitive (one "thing" is that Carlos has 18 brothers and sisters; another "thing" is that he has 11 sisters and 7 brothers - we could have done the math and skipped the first "thing'). Check out the original magazine's website - why buy the cow when you can get the milk...

5 comments about Growing Up Cuban in Decatur, Georgia.
- I can't stop recommending this to all who will listen. My kids love it. My mother loved it. Great storyteller. Fun for all.
Of course, being Cuban myself, I could relate to many of her anecdotes.
Everybody should have this.
- Carmen Deedy is a wonderful storyteller and author! My daughter and I have worn out the tape version listening over and over again! The stories are heartfelt, funny and so real- you will feel as though they are told just for you!
Her stories (books & CD) are so well written and told, young and old will laugh out loud - although it may be for two different reasons! She is a favorite at our house (and in our car!)You won't be dissapointed!
I have had the amazing opportunity to see Ms. Deedy present her stories to an elementary school and everyone (kids and grownups) loved every minute of her storytelling! I was able to visit with her for a short while and she is such a nice, down to earth person and it was truely a joy and honor to have this opportunity.
- Carmen Deedy tells hilarious stories of her family, her home, and growing up in Decatur, Ga. Definately worth listening to over and over!
- I wish I could introduce everyone to Carmen Agra Deedy. My daughter and granddaughters have talked about her for years. On my vacation, it was my great pleasure to attend a story telling session at a Borders in Georgia. What a wonderful story teller Ms Deedy is. I bought several of her books for children while at the store, charming stories, beautifully illustrated. When we returned to my daughter's home, my daughter handed me an audio tape of Ms. Deedy narrating her stories of Growing up Cuban in Decatur, Georgia. I listened, I smiled and I had a great urge to have everyone I know enjoy the same happy experience. With no trouble at all, I was able to sit at my daughter's computer, ask Amazon.com to send me three copies of the tapes. They arrived at my home before I did, and have given some happy, peaceful moments to my dear ones here in Rhode Island. I highly recommend her books and her tapes.
- The only thing better is seeing her live, and my only complaint is that it wasn't longer. She's wonderful to listen to.

1 comments about Pablo Picasso (The Great Hispanic Heritage).
- This book was very helpful as I was preparing to present Picasso's art to elementary school children. It takes a long, prolific career, and organizes the different periods of Picasso's art so that it is more succinct. The wording is very understandable yet not condescending for older readers. This is a great series for adults, like myself, trying to help children understand why an artist was so great.
