Preview of the episode

It is a Latino Festival on Sesame Street! The neighborhood is filled with people from lots of places around Latin America and there is a different booth for each country. Rosita and Telly walk over to Luis who is standing in the booth for Mexico. Rosita tells Telly that this is the booth for the country she is from. Luis explains that even though he is from Sesame Street, his parents were born in Mexico so that makes him Mexican-American. Telly asks if Maria is from Mexico because she speaks Spanish, too. Maria explains that even though she speaks Spanish, her family is from Puerto Rico, just like Mando, who is putting together their booth right now. As Maria heads off to help Mando, Rosita and Telly find a coquí, a little frog originally from Puerto Rico. Maria borrowed him for her booth. Rosita and Telly offer to bring the coquí to her, but as they begin walking, the coquí jumps out of Rosita’s hand. Rosita and Telly search for him through the Latino Festival and learn along the way that people also speak Spanish in Peru and Cuba. The coquí finally makes it to the Puerto Rico booth, and Rosita tells everyone what she and Telly learned about the other booths, and how everyone was speaking Spanish. Mando explains that everyone is speaking Spanish because they are at the Latino Street Festival and Latinos are people who come from countries where mostly Spanish is spoken. Rosita is so excited because she can speak Spanish to people all over the world. Mando says that even though they come from so many different places, their language is one thing Latinos have in common.
