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."
