Publisher Description:
Dive into Spanish text and fly high over beautiful New York City with Rosalba and her grandmother in Arthur Dorros' enchanting Abuela. Winner of the Parents' Choice Award.

-Tantos p jaros- dice Rosalva mientras les dan de comer-. Y qu tal si los p jaros me alzaran y me llevaran volando por encima del parque? Qu pasar a si yo volara?

Y claro que ella vuela Y lleva consiguo a su abuela y nos narra, en espa ol sazonado con algunas frases en ingl s, este maravilloso viaje. Mucho de los lugares que visitan le recuerdan a la abuela el momento de su llegada a este pa s.

Con su energ a y belleza, las ilustraciones tipo collage transforman la ciudad de Nueva York en un tesoro para los lectores al igual que para Rosalba y Abuela. Su aventura es un canto al poder del amor y al orgullo familiar entre una ni a y su abuela.


Dorros's text seamlessly weaves Spanish words and phrases into the English narrative, retaining a dramatic quality rarely found in bilingual picture books--Publisher's Weekly
