Summary

In this vibrant bilingual picture book biography of musician Tito Puente, readers will dance along to the beat of this mambo king's life. Tito Puente loved banging pots and pans as a child, but what he really dreamed of was having his own band one day. From Spanish Harlem to the Grammy Awards-and all the beats in between-this is the true life story of a boy whose passion for music turned him into the "King of Mambo."
