By Barbara Quick
Illustrated by Liz McGrath
Translation by Traduccion por Eida de la Vega
This
bilingual story, told in both English and Spanish is a testament
to the love felt between a child and mother, chronicling the changes
from birth to the mother's old age. The narration alternates between
the child and the mother's affirmation of love. Using this feel-good
book as a conversation starter could help parents and children express
their feelings for one another.
Raven Tree Press specializes
in bilingual materials for early readers, and this story is told
in a lyrical, easy to read text. Liz McGrath has captured the feelings
perfectly in the marvelous illustrations. The back of the book contains
a glossary of vocabulary words in both English and Spanish. This
would be a useful addition to elementary school curriculum or home
school as the easy, pleasant way to learn a second language.
