Review

The unifying lure of paleta love underscores the joys all people—regardless of differences—have in common. Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
Filled with life and joy, this story is an upbeat, multi-sensory experience that honors the breadth and harmony of multiculturalism in Diaz's LA hometown.

School Library Journal (starred review)
A wonderfully executed treat of a book with a sweet community focus. Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Depicts wonderful examples of kindness, community, and delicious paletas." Booklist (starred review)
Diaz's story in verse, with its chantable refrain and kid-sized dollop of tension, is a paean to Eighth Street Los Angeles food culture. Whether it's sourced from a street cart, a taqueria freezer, or the library's back room refrigerator, we all know what the storytime treat will be. Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
Paletero Man is a celebration of a culturally specific experience but the juicy and colorful world inside makes this story accessible and welcoming for all readers. Tori Kerr of SiriusXM Kids Place Live
[A] homage to Mexican culture—both in Mexico and in the U.S. The story is as delightful as a juicy paleta de horchata or melón, and highly recommended. De Colores: The Raza Experience in Books for Children
[A] unique and entertaining children's picture book...especially recommended for family, daycare center, preschool, elementary school, and community library collections. Midwest Book Review
