A children’s picture book
Javier the avocado has big dreams of playing in a band. But he can't make music alone, so he goes on a search for others. There's Lorenzo the lime on drums, Omar the onion plays bass, Cecilia the cilantro with vocals, Julio the jalapeño on piano, and Samantha the salt shaker plays the trumpet.
Together, they discover something delicious: that friendship is the secret ingredient. And the best songs, like the best guacamole, needs every part to work.
The Guacamole Gang is a story about belonging, teamwork, and the joy of making something together. It's also the most fun your kid will ever have learning to love guacamole.
