Product Information

In this delightful children's tale, an American boy, Kenny Strange, moves to the quiet Mexican town of Taxco with his parents and strikes up a friendship with young Juanito Perez, a Taxco native. The two boys are brought together by an enchanting toy, the pasteboard bandit Tito. Chosen byJuanito at a town fair from among the other pasteboard toys, Tito, with his colorful clothes and bright eyes, becomes Juanito's and Kenny's constant companion, and the threesome share many adventures in and around the town's rolling green hills. The boys' growing friendship, Kenny's introduction toa culture unlike his own, and Tito's witty reflections on being a toy will be recognized instantly by anyone young or old who has ever made a friend or imagined that a toy might be real.Originally written in 1935, but never before published, The Pasteboard Bandit grew out of several trips Langston Hughes made to Mexico during his lifetime. Hughes first went to the town of Toluca at age 5 to visit his father, and again when he was older. During these visits, Hughes met many writersand artists, and it is their influence that informs the story of The Pasteboard Bandit--a story of two cultures meeting. When Hughes left Mexico for the last time, at age 32, he was carrying the first draft for The Pasteboard Bandit.

Reviews
"Makes a sincere and convincing appeal for racial tolerance, presented to readers within a parable of family love and childhood imagination.... The poetic voices of Bontemps and Hughes sound a call for cultural exchange that remains compelling.... Written with foresight and poetic skill, ThePasteboard Bandit affirms the idealsim of its authors, encouraging all of us to dream of a world without prejudice."--Hungry Mind Review, "About the meeting of two dramatically different cultures and how they arebrought closer by a colorfully painted cardboard cutout of a bandit....[Turley's] paintings are alive with bright primary colors and soothing pastels.The artwork is a delicious blend of the fanciful and real and perfectlycomplements the text.... Hughes and Bontemps used their little story toemphasize the healing value of communication. Spanish is sprinkled throughoutthe book to add authenticity to an alien culture."--Home News Tribune (EastBrunswick, NJ), "The winsome tale of the friendship that flourishes between a Mexican boy and a boy from America has a timely message for today's youngsters.... The authors focus on such child-pleasing topics as holidays, food, and learning to communicate, as the boys teach each other key words in Spanish andEnglish--while gently underscoring the importance of tolerance, self-esteem, and sharing. Exploding with vivid colors and fanciful patterns, Turley's full-bleed stylized paintings have a playful, collage-like quality.... It's easy to believe that Bontemps and Hughes would be delighted with thisanimated volume--and that readers will be, too."--Publishers Weekly (starred review), "Hughes and Bontemps successfully capture the lush Mexican culture withall its sights and sounds. Turley's vivid, Mexican-inspired illustrations pairnicely with this warmhearted story.... Sure to charm children andadults."--MultiCultural Review, "A fanciful, lyrical piece about two boys, one Mexican, one white American, and the toy figure of a bandit that the boys make their friend."--The New York Times, "Sincerely drawn and appealing.... Tito is a good soldier, patient whenthe boys leave him behind in their play, and brave when, in a little pasteboardway, he rescues Juanito and Kenny when they become trapped in an abandonedmine.... A lot of fun."--The Horn Book Magazine, "A fanciful, lyrical piece about two boys, one Mexican, one whiteAmerican, and the toy figure of a bandit that the boys make their friend."--TheNew York Times, "The winsome tale of the friendship that flourishes between a Mexican boyand a boy from America has a timely message for today's youngsters....
