My Papa Has a Red Mustache

My Papa Has a Red Mustache is a humorous juvenile fiction story about a young girl and her extraordinary father. While she admires her papa for being a pancake ninja and a fearless pillow fighter, she finds his red mustache embarrassing because it differs from the black mustaches of other men. This charming children's book explores the bond between a child and parent through a lens of family love and Hispanic and Latino culture.

The narrative follows the pair as they visit a soccer game in the United States, where the girl becomes separated from her father. This experience transforms her perspective on his unique appearance. As a volume 1 release from author Leo Espinosa, this picture book uses a goal-worthy finale to show that the very trait she once found silly is what makes her father stand out.
