Dona Flor: A Tall Tale About a Giant Woman with a Great Big Heart | Pat Mora

1 post | 1 read | 1 to read

Dońa Flor is a giant woman who lives in a puebla with lots of families. She loves her neighbors–she lets the children use her flowers for trumpets, and the families use her leftover tortillas for rafts. So when a huge puma is terrifying the village, of course Flor is the one to investigate. Featuring Spanish words and phrases throughout, as well as a glossary, Pat Mora’s story, along with Raśl Colón’s glorious artwork, makes this a treat for any reader, tall or small. Award-winning author Pat Mora’s previous book with Raśl Colón, Tomįs and the Library Lady, received the Tomįs Rivera Mexican American Children’s Book Award, an IRA Teacher’s Choice Award, a Skipping Stones Award, and was also named a Texas Bluebonnet Award Master List title and an Americas Award for Children’s and Young Adult Literature commended title. She lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Dona Flor: A Tall Tale About a Giant Woman with a Great Big Heart | Pat Mora

#WinterWonderland Day 28: The cover of this book reminded me of #BloweNorthernWinde. This is the story of a gigantic beautiful woman named Doña Flor who lives in a small barrio in the American southwest. The villagers do not fear her presence, in fact they look forward to her giant steps, the songs that she sings allowing birds to come and build nests in her hair. She reads encyclopedias in under 5 mins too! My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-7Au
