EDICIÓN EN ESPAÑOL

Una niña conoce a más parientes de los que puede contar, pero ¿cómo se comunicará con ellos si no puede hablar español con la misma fluidez?

A little girl meets more relatives than she can count—but how will she communicate with them if she can’t speak their language?

(edición en español)
Es el primer viaje de una niña al país natal de su papá, y ella está impresionada con los paisajes maravillos, los sonidos sorprendentes ¡y especialmente con el tamaño de su enorme familia! Pero sabe solo un poco de español y le resulta difícil compartir chistes y anécdotas con fluidez. Por suerte, sus parientes la ayudan a ver que hay otras maneras de relacionarse. Pronto la niña siente que está justo donde pertenece: en el corazón de una familia amorosa, aprendiendo mientras crece.

(Spanish edition)
It’s a little girl’s first trip to her papa’s homeland, and she’s wowed by all the amazing sights and sounds—and especially by the size of her enormous family! But she only knows a little Spanish, and it’s hard not to be able to share jokes and stories. Fortunately, her relatives help her see that there are other ways they can connect, and soon she feels like she’s right where she belongs: in the heart of a loving family, learning as she goes along.

Praise for Tíos y primos (Tíos and Primos Spanish Edition)


PRAISE FOR JACQUELINE ALCANTARA'S ILLUSTRATIONS IN JAM, TOO? (by JaNay Brown-Wood):
    * “In Alcántara’s richly colorful illustrations, the blues of sky and ocean, the tan sand, and the lush, green land remain constant while the musicians add as much color as they do sound, illustrating the amazing way that making music can bring people together and create community. Alcántara effectively captures the diversity of the characters in this African diasporic setting, illustrating various skin tones, hair styles and textures, clothing styles, fabric patterns, and more.” —Kirkus STAR
    “Colorfully energetic marker-and-Photoshop illustrations leap off the page with movement. . . . Surely a storytime winner, this radiant picture book will keep kids coming back to move and groove in their community.” —BCCB
     "This entertaining cumulative tale demonstrates the rhythmic power of music to bring people together in friendship." — Booklist
