Mama and Papa could not agree on a name for their first baby, and everyone in the family had an opinion. That's how the name Pacho-Nacho-Nico-Tico-Melo-Felo-Kiko-Rico came to be, and Pacho's parents insisted that everyone use his full name. But when Pacho finds himself in trouble, his younger brother, Juan, must quickly find help, which isn't easy when you have to keep saying Pacho-Nacho-Nico-Tico-Melo-Felo-Kiko-Rico. Author Silvia Lopez highlights family values, community connections, and brotherly love in this interactive, energetic, and silly picture book. Pacho Nacho is based on an old Japanese folktale and includes Spanish words and phrases and multicultural settings.
"Librarian and author López puts a Latin American twist on a classic silly story. . . .Bright cartoon illustrations by Pino seem to set the story in what is now the United States Southwest and lend a cinematic theatricality. . . .As with the source material, a read-aloud that will have young audiences in stiches." - Kirkus Reviews

"López gives a Spanish twist to an old Japanese folktale about a boy with an extraordinarily long name. . . .Argentinian illustrator Pino’s cartoonish artwork is colorful and energetic, effectively conveying the story’s high jinks. This book is a wonderful read-aloud filled with rhyme and repetition. A glossary helpfully defines the Spanish words peppered throughout the story, and an author's note offers background on the original tale." - Booklist

"The text is sprinkled with Spanish words throughout and Pino’s colorful cartoon artwork sets the scene in a rural, folkloric Mexican landscape. A Spanish word list and an author’s note discussing stories with similar plots are appended. Youngsters will get a kick out of saying the main character’s name while enjoying this entertaining story, perfect to share at storytimes and during Hispanic Heritage Month." - School Library Journal
