Abuelita's hair is the color of salt. Her face is as crinkled as a dried chile. She booms out words as wild as blossoms blooming. She stuffs her carcacha--her jalopy--with all the things she needs: a plumed snake, a castle, a skeleton, and more. Her grandson knows he has the most amazing grandmother ever--with a very important job. What does Abuelita do? With her booming voice and wonderful props, Abuelita is a storyteller. Next to being a grandmother, that may be the most important job of all. Sprinkled with Spanish and infused with love, My Abuelita is a glorious celebration of family, imagination, and the power of story.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Clarion BooksISBN-13:9780152163303ISBN-10:152163301UPC:9780152163303Book Category:Juvenile FictionBook Subcategory:Family, Business, Careers, Occupations, People & PlacesBook Topic:Multigenerational, MexicoAward:2010 Pura Belpre Award Honor Book - Illustrator Award|2010 Americas Award for Children & Young Adult Literature Commended - Children/Young Adult AwardSize:11.00 x 8.80 x 0.40 inchesWeight:0.8201Product ID:SCQ60WJ1A4
