Español

Los Sabados y Domingos de Maya y Annie

Maya y Annie son amigas que solo juegan juntas los sábados y domingos. Preparan limonada con limones del gran árbol del jardín de Annie y juegan con los dos perritos de Maya. A Maya le gustan las diferentes comidas que prepara el papá de Annie: fideos, arroz, pescado y dumplings. Y a Annie le gusta cenar lo que prepara la mamá de Maya: tacos, pollo, tamales y arroz con frijoles. Una noche especial, el papá de Annie y la mamá de Maya invitan a sus abuelos, tías, tíos y primos a una gran cena y hacen un anuncio especial: ¡se casan! Las niñas se convertirán en hermanas y pasarán todos los días de la semana juntas. Desde las posadas hasta el Año Nuevo Lunar, cada niña relata su perspectiva de su amistad en páginas alternadas, acompañadas de animadas ilustraciones de Thelma Muraida. Basado en las propias experiencias de Gwendolyn Zepeda con su familia, este atractivo libro ilustrado bilingüe para niños de 4 a 8 años explora las familias fusionadas desde una perspectiva multicultural, combinando las tradiciones culturales asiáticas y latinas.

English

Maya and Annie on Saturdays and Sundays

Maya and Annie are friends who play together only on Saturdays and Sundays. They make lemonade with lemons from the big tree in Annie’s yard and play with Maya’s two little dogs. Maya likes the different food Annie’s dad cooks: noodles, rice, fish and dumplings. And Annie likes eating dinners Maya’s mom makes: tacos, chicken, tamales and rice and beans.
One special night, Annie’s dad and Maya’s mom invite their grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins to a big dinner and make a special announcement: they’re getting married! The girls will become sisters, and they’ll spend every day of the week together.
From posadas to Lunar New Year, each girl recounts her perspective of their friendship on alternating pages that are paired with lively illustrations by Thelma Muraida. Based on Gwendolyn Zepeda’s own experiences with her family, this engaging bilingual picture book for ages 4-8 explores blended families from a multicultural perspective, combining Asian and Latino cultural traditions.
