I used this book when I taught primary grades in Fort Worth, TX. It was nice to re-read as I am working my way through the Pura Belpre award books. It would go well with On My Block: Stories and Paintings by 15 Artists. Like that book, this one has illustrations of special places that are described with brief text. It's a great look into the artist's past and culture.

I was surprised how much I enjoyed this book. Gives you a peek into a traditional hispanic family and many of their traditions. Illustrations made you want to spend additional time with the book, just looking at the paintings. Book is translated in both English and Spanish.
