A little girl basks in the everyday love of her great-grandmother, grandmother, and mother in this bilingual (English and Spanish) and multigenerational picture book celebration. "A vibrantly illustrated, bilingual picture book that captures the rhythms of life."-- Kirkus Reviews Illustrated by "Corazones Valientes," six women artists from Costa Rica working together, this book celebrates four generations of women in one family. From great-grandmother to grandmother to mother to daughter, each shows love in a traditional way--in cooking tortillas, doing laundry, and giving flowers--and through increasingly modern methods as the years pass. But one thing never changes: the lullaby they sing, and the love they all have for one another. Written in both English and Spanish, this is a tribute to families and everyday love. "The timeless quality of maternal love is evident throughout."-- School Library Journal Supports the Common Core State Standards.
