Enjoy lively, interactive storytelling in this all-new FREE series for children ages 3-8 and their folks.

Felix Pitre shares many of the Hispanic traditions that were passed down to him from his own family, bringing to life the culture of Latin America with puppetry, stories, songs, instruments, and dance—performed in English interwoven with Spanish words and phrases. Born in Puerto Rico, Felix grew up in New York City, where he attended the New York City High School for the Performing Arts and Hofstra University. As an actor he has worked in every medium including television, film, theater, and commercials. As a storyteller, he has performed throughout the United States, including Washington's Kennedy Center and the Smithsonian's Discovery Theatre. His picture books, Juan Bobo and the Pig, and Paco and the Witch have been published in both English and Spanish. In Animal Tales, Felix presents a collection of animal stories and songs from Brazil, Mexico, and Peru celebrating the environment and teaching respect for creatures large and small.
