AUDIENCE APPEAL: LOW
An Abuelo comes to visit his family each year and shares his
wisdom about staying optimistic. Instead of crying he says to sing. This will
gladden your heart and things won’t seem so bad. Singing will attract others to
you as well.
This book has very little text and the reader will have to
make a lot of assumptions about the pictures that are illustrated. It has a
good message of positivity and there is an author’s note about how the
inspiration for the book is from her actual Abuelo.
