Through charming detail and beautiful illustrations, noted author Alma Flor Ada shares true stories from her childhood filled with family love and values. Told through the eyes of a child, a whole world comes to life for readers from tales about relatives, friends, and the hacienda where she grew up during her elementary years.
"Warmth and love for a treasured childhood exude from the pages.... Those who wonder what 'family values' really are may possibly find the answer in this slim volume of short stories." -- School Library Journal
