Abuela by Arthur Dorros, Elisa Kleven (Illustrator)
A Hispanic-American child imagines
she's rising into the air over the park and flying away with her abuela
(grandmother). From the air, they see Manhattan streets, docks, an airport,
tourist attractions, and Rosalba's father's office. Text is simple and
can be enjoyed as a read aloud or as a read alone. Spanish words and
phrases are integrated within the English text. A glossary provided as
an appendix provides definitions and pronunciations. Illustrations portray
an energetic, multiethnic city.
