Mama and Me

by Arthur Dorros

Summary: A girl and her mother spend a day together gardening, making cookies, and visiting a neighbor.

I did not find this book particularly exciting, but the illustrations are gorgeous. This story is ideal for reading to young children who speak Spanish or children who are learning to speak Spanish. The text contains Spanish words scattered throughout. Read this book to celebrate this summer’s national reading theme “One World, Many Stories.”
