At Grandma’s house, where Julia is staying without her parents for the first time, the breeze is sweet like jasmine. Mornings begin with sugared bread, and the most magnificent hot chocolate cures all homesickness. There’s something about this place...and about Grandma.

A wistful, poetic, beautifully drawn story of a young girl and her abuela that should charm both children and parents alike. Recommended reading for families everywhere.

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]
