National Geographic, June 1968
National Geographic, June 1968

Barefoot Mexcaltitán pre-schoolers practice the art of the bargain as Luz Maria gets aggressive toward Green Dress, whose lowball offer for their fruit has insulted the entire Ruvalcaba family. Twin sister Martha Estella bears a bowl of coquitos de aceite on her head, patiently enduring the exchange and the heated voice of the alpha twin.

      1. LOL, now I see. Well, I didn’t make up the names of the girls or the fruit, but I’ll take credit for the rest. Thanks! Your sons will be master level by the time they are grown.
