Chile Chooses Christmas
At Abuela Consuela’s Christmas Day feast in Las Cruces, the kitchen is full of steaming tamales, puffed tortillas, and the delicious aromas of a family gathering. Tiny Chihuahua Chile arrives eager to celebrate—and with a necklace of little red and green Hatch chile peppers jingling around his neck.
But a big question interrupts the festivities: red or green? Chile loves both, and everyone in his family seems ready to champion a favorite. Abuelo Cazuelo praises red chile, while Tía Sophia speaks up for green. Primo Timo’s red-chile enchiladas sound tempting, and Prima Sima’s green-chile nachos make the choice even harder. With his ears drooping and his mind full of delicious possibilities, Chile turns to Abuela Consuela for help. Can he find a way through his red-or-green dilemma?
Chile Chooses Christmas is a warm, festive read-aloud about family, New Mexico flavors, and the joy of belonging. Follow a little dog, a jingling necklace, and a Christmas feast filled with love and lively opinions.
