Everyone in Gustavo's family is in a mariachi band. Everyone except Gustavo, that is. They all play violíns, trompetas and guitarrones. They all make wonderful music in restaurants and at wedding parties. Gustavo would love to join the band, but he can't play any of the instruments. What's a wannabe mariachi to do?

 

Over at the pbj's we are having another picturebook spotlight!  We are celebrating with the very talented Dani Jones, who is the illustrator of The Best Mariachi In the World, written by J.D Smith and published with Raven Tree Press.

 

Dani will be spending the week with us answering questions about her experience and has graciously offered a signed copy of Mariachi to a lucky winner. Thanks, Dani! All you have to do is answer this multiple choice question:

 

"In what Mexican state did mariachi music originate?"

A. Sonora

B. Jalisco

C. Durango

 

Submit your answer in the commets section this week to be entered.

See you there and join in the fun!

Is the answer B? :)

I've just written my first picture book and this is a whole new world from my other writing. So I joined SCBWI and saw your web site - love it!
