Thirteen Latino poets celebrate the bond between mothers, grandmothers, and children and the influence of that relationship on their lives. The poems, in English and Spanish, evoke memories, humor, and traditions of Puerto Rican, Cuban, Venezuelan, and Mexican American origins, with illustrations that underscore the warmth of those ties.

For children ages 4 to 8 and for families who want to share a bilingual reading that pays tribute to mothers and grandmothers.
