Grandma Lupe's tamales
are the favorite food of all the children in town until Mr. Sugar comes riding
in on his magical truck full of sweets. Suddenly the children won't eat anything
but double-chocolate sundaes, raspberry cream pie, and fudge bars. Before long
they're so roly-poly they can't see their feet, and their teeth are full of
black holes! It falls to Grandma Lupe to unmask Mr. Sugar and to show the
children why something that feels good may not be good for them. Adapted from a
puppet play by the Migrant Farmworkers Outreach Program in California's Central
Valley, this fanciful tale treats the themes of substance abuse and nutrition in
an amusing, whimsical way.
Listen
to Vienna Rose read Mr Sugar Came to Town to you. A marvelous
example of the magical encounter between a child and books that we wish for all
children.
"This funny,
moralistic story was adapted from a puppet show which was used as part of a
health clinic's outreach program to migrant farmworkers and their families in
California. Humorous illustrations with exaggerated perspectives complement the
text on each facing page." —School Library Journal
"Anyone who has tried to woo a child away from sugar should read Mr. Sugar
Came to Town." —Newspaper Morena
