In this hilarious Hispanic take on the Gingerbread Man story, one of Tia Lupe's famously light and fluffy tortillas claims it is too beautiful to be eaten and makes a run for it. The owners of the Mexican speciality restaurant give chase and before long the pursuit continues across a desert landscape and is joined by an ever increasing number of hungry participants: lizards, donkeys, jack rabbits, rattlesnakes and even cowboys on horseback. The tortilla escapes them all, however, even taunting its pursuers with a cheeky song until its bid for freedom is curtailed by the wily Senor Coyote who tricks the tortilla and brings events to a tasty conclusion. The story uses repetition and cumulative refrains to great effect and the Spanish words scattered freely throughout are easily understood from the context..
