This book could be used in my classroom for teaching themes of family, love, and resilience. It also provides a sense of cultural awareness and it offers an opportunity to explore traditions, family dynamics, and the importance of intergenerational relationships.
This book is a picture book in the genre of historical fiction for children. It was published in 2018. This book shares a touching story set in Mexico and explores the bond between a young girl and her grandmother as they share life's simple joys, only to be impacted by the challenges of time and loss.
In a better loving and neighboring world there would be no need to publish this book. However, I'll refrain further from stirring bitter and say please support / read / teach this story and struggle of too many. (Side Note: So proud my friend Cecilia created the cover art for this.)
Abuela and Niña enjoy their time together- crafting, laughing, cooking, and eating pan dulce in the park together.
As Niña and Abuela grow older they don‘t spend as much time together, but kindness from Niña brings them back to their favorite tradition, eating pan dulce in the park together.
