Sinossi

Mamiachi & Me is a lyrical and empowering picture book written by Jolene and Dakota Gutiérrez about what it means to be a mariachi in an all‑female band. 
Today’s the day! Rosa will take the stage next to her mami and play along with her popular mariachi band. But as they fasten the shiny botonaduras and tie the moños on their charra suits, Rosa begins to worry. What if the audience doesn’t like her? Is she ready to perform? 
With her “mamiachi” and madrinas by her side, Rosa’s stage fright is soothed away by the sound of trumpets, guitars, and violins. Centering on the power of sisterhood, community, and music, the warm and lively text by mother-and-son writing duo Jolene and Dakota Gutiérrez provides a unique perspective to the male-dominated world of mariachi. Back matter includes additional context on the history of the beloved Mexican tradition and the rise of all-female mariachi groups, as well as a fun, detailed look at a mariachi’s signature charro suit! 
"A heartfelt testament to the power of family and culture and the courage to find one’s voice."—Kirkus Reviews
