Booktalk: A stormy afternoon and an order from Mom to stay inside are no match for this little dreamer, who uses everyday household items–a rocket chair, a cardboard box, an old dish rag, and a super-duper imagination–to whip up a trip around the universe!

Juan Hormiga

Booktalk: Juan Hormiga, the greatest storyteller of his entire anthill, loves to recount his fearless grandfather’s adventures. When Juan and his fellow ants gather around for storytime, he hypnotizes all with tales of his grandfather’s many exploits — including his escape from an eagle’s talons and the time he leapt from a tree with just a leaf for a parachute. When he’s through telling these tales, Juan loves to cozy up for a nice long nap. He’s such a serious napper that he takes up to ten siestas every day! Though well loved by his ant friends, Juan decides telling tales and sleeping aren’t quite enough for him — it’s time to set off on his own adventure.
Snippet: If there was one way in which Juan Hormiga was second to none, it was his way of taking a nap.
