Juan grew up to the sounds of mariachi bands; he loved music and became a musical explorer. Defying convention, he created music that made people laugh and planted images in their minds. His musical dreams brought him from Mexico to America and gained him worldwide renown. Juan's space-age lounge music--popular in the fifties and sixties--has found a new generation of listeners. This account honors Esquivel as one of the great composers of the 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Susan Wood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1580896731\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781580896733\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Charlesbridge Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/06\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 10.20w x 0.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.6\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e184296 \/ Esquivel!
