PRAISE

"Beautiful watercolor-and-gouache illustrations bring to life the serenity found within the home and within Grandmother herself. The Spanish text perfectly conveys the quiet thoughts Julia has and the warmth and happiness her abuela brings. This Spanish picture book about a young girl's special summer with her grandmother will have readers young and old appreciating the simple beauty of the everyday. Highly recommended." [Booklist]
