Description

Learn of the family values and experiences of a young child growing up in Cuba through this retelling of stories from author Alma Flor Ada’s childhood. Through charming detail and beautiful illustrations, noted author Alma Flor Ada shares true stories from her childhood filled with family love and values. Told through the eyes of a child, a whole world comes to life for readers from tales about relatives, friends, and the hacienda where she grew up during her elementary years. “Warmth and love for a treasured childhood exude from the pages…. Those who wonder what ‘family values’ really are may possibly find the answer in this slim volume of short stories.” — School Library Journal
