What’s
your favorite celebration, Pedro?
Pedro:
I think carnival time is the most exciting
celebration. I love being in the carnival parade. Do you
want to see my photographs from last year’s carnival?

Yes, please. Do you
have any photographs of the
big carnival floats? I think they’re the best part of the
parade.

Yes – look. This float has big flowers on it.

Wow – it’s fantastic!

I like listening to the musicians, too.

And watching the dancers. My aunt is a dancer at
our carnival. She’s very good at dancing.
