"A poignant tale of intergenerational connection, transition, and patience. . . . Heartfelt, layered, and beautiful." - Booklist (starred review)
Mia's abuela has left her sunny house with parrots and palm trees to live with Mia and her parents in the city. While they cook, Mia helps Abuela learn English, and Mia learns some Spanish, too, but it's still hard for Abuela to learn enough words to tell Mia her stories. Then Mia sees a parrot in the pet-shop window and has the perfecto idea for how to help them all communicate a little better.
Here is an endearing tale that speaks loud and clear about the love that binds families across the generations.
