Guat kids books

Are there any good kids books about Guatemala? Most books I find on Guatemala seem to be history or tourism. We have over the moon, but I'm looking for something else for my almost 3 year olds.

We have a couple of books that our family likes:

Guatemala ABCs - Amazon.com: Guatemala ABCs: A Book About the People and Places of Guatemala (Country Abcs): Aboff, Marcie, Trover, Zachary: Books

It's just what it sounds like - an ABC book all about Guatemala

Guatemala: A Question and Answer Book - Amazon.com: Guatemala: A Question and Answer Book (Fact Finders): Englar, Mary: Books

Definitely geared toward older children (and a great book to use for a report for elementary grades) I still really like it.

Guatemala Rainbox - Amazon.com: Guatemala Rainbow: Gianni Vecchiato: Books

This is a beautiful "coffee table" book, but my 3 year old loves to just look at the pictures. I love this book (and actually have two copies!)
