During the start of the second semester of Spanish 3, we began to read a book called El Ekeko. This was a book about a young boy named Paco who lives in the poor areas of La Paz, Bolivia. Paco comes across an old doll called Ekeko. The Ekeko has magical powers, but it forces Paco to think about what he values. While reading this book, I learned a lot about Bolivian culture. One interesting thing that I saw was Cholitas. Cholitas are traditional indigenous women in South America. Another cool thing about Bolivia was the food. We cooked Bolivian food in class, and It was extremely delicious.
