Mango, Abuela, and Me

Written by Meg Medina, Illustrated by Angela Dominguez

This was such a sweet book. I absolutely enjoyed how this little girl and her grandmother became closer although at first they both spoke different languages. I personally enjoy books that put in words from different languages since they tend to unite readers. The illustrations in this book were beautiful.
