El regalo de mi abuela

En este entrañable libro ilustrado autobiográfico, el reconocido ilustrador Eric Velásquez recuerda una Navidad en el apartamento de su abuela en Spanish Harlem. Ese año, ella lo llevó al Museo Metropolitano de Arte, donde vio por primera vez el retrato de Juan de Pareja pintado por Diego Velázquez, un encuentro que marcaría su vida como artista. Combinando memoria, amor familiar y el descubrimiento del arte y la identidad, esta tierna historia celebra el vínculo entre abuela y nieto y el poder duradero de un regalo generoso.

Grandma's Gift

In this heartfelt autobiographical picture book, acclaimed illustrator Eric Velasquez remembers a Christmas spent at his grandmother's apartment in Spanish Harlem. That year, she took him to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where he first saw Diego Velázquez's portrait of Juan de Pareja—an encounter that would shape his life as an artist. Blending memory, family love, and the discovery of art and identity, this tender story celebrates the bond between grandmother and grandson and the lasting power of a single, generous gift.
