With a more traditional look, I liked the combination between bilingualism, cooking and poetry. Although not a standout read.

I really enjoyed this book. It is a great book for students who are learning a new language, because it is written in both English and Spanish.

The book shares the authors experiences immigrating to United States. He expresses the memories he has from El Salvador and what it was like to move to a new country. The book is in both English and Spanish and how the author misses and loves his grandmother who stayed in El Salvador. I would recommend this book because it gives an insight into what immigrants encounter when they move to a new country. This would be good book for 3rd graders and below and read aloud for 2nd graders.

I loved that this book was written in both Spanish and English!
