This sequel to Chato's Kitchen is truly a cause for celebration!

Chato-the coolest cat in the barrio-loves to party. So when he learns that Novio Boy has never had a birthday party, Chato decides to throw him a surprise pachanga. He gets right to work-inviting everyone in the neighborhood, cooking up a feast, arranging for music and a pinata, and even ordering a special cake. Chato's sure that he's thought of everything. But when it comes time for the party, he realizes that he forgot the most important thing of all-Novio Boy!

      When his best friend does not share his exuberance for celebrations, Chato, the barrio's favorite cat, takes matters into his own paws. "Everybody needs a birthday party," says Chato. He and his friends decorate and cook, plan music, and party outrageously in honor of Novio Boy. But where's the guest of honor? Kidnapped? Lost? As the friends reminisce, Novio Boy's fine qualities rise to the fore. As listeners catch the rhythm and beat of a poignant celebration, Luis Guzman narrates with Spanish flair. The accompanying music is exuberant, and the vibrancy of Susan Guavera's illustrations add to the swing of this fine story of friendship.
