Description
Abuela’s Wishing Tree is a lyrical bilingual picture book that pays tribute to the Cuban immigrant experience and the delight of nostalgia of those who have left their countries of origin. A celebration of multigenerational joy and family. Seen through the eyes of a Cuban American girl who is about to celebrate her quinceañera, Abuela’s Wishing Tree highlights how each family member brings to life a different memory of Cuba, and how home is always where the heart is.
Story by Mitzi Fernandez Spitzer; illustrated by Julia Sarapata de Carvalho; translated by Gabriella Aldeman.
