How is a cat playing pretend racist? I totally get the Spanglish issues, but they are fun books to read aloud.

Do you do a Speedy Gonzales voice?


I don't see this any differently than Puss in Boots speaking with a spanish accent, and yes, I know that it's Antonio Banderas, but if the character is supposed to be spanish, then shouldn't they speak Spanglish?


I didn't know puss and puts was spanish


In the dreamworks film he was. http://www.pussinbootsthemovie.com/
