Abuela



Title: Abuela
Written by: Arthur Deorros
Illustrated by: Elisa Kleven

Complex, lively illustrations make this book a visual treat for children. The story features a young girl and her grandmother (spanish word for grandmother is abuela), setting off on adventures around New York City together. The adventures are magical and innocent with many famous images of NYC. The story incorporates many Spanish words and provides subtle definitions as well. Small amounts of the book are dedicated to Abuela's story of immigrating to America.

Ages: 4 to 7
