It’s the Night of the Radishes and Don Pedro wants to carve the best radish sculpture in town. But one radish won’t cooperate. It bounces away, looking for action! So begins a raucous romp as everyone in town gets involved in the chasing of the radish. Written in a style reminiscent of “The Gingerbread Man,” one antic builds on another until finally the rascally radish is subdued.
The Night of the Radishes is an annual festival held on the evening of December 23rd in Oaxaca, Mexico.
