Una vibrante colección de poesía bilingüe que invita a los pequeños lectores a descubrir los colores, sonidos y sabores de México. A través de versos líricos en inglés y español, Tony Johnston celebra las casas de adobe pintadas con los colores del arcoíris, las rosas que crecen en latas de café y los lirios en frascos de chile, así como los campos de maíz que se mecen con el viento cálido. Acompañada de ilustraciones en suaves tonos pastel, esta alegre colección sumerge a los niños en la calidez y el ritmo de la cultura mexicana.

English Translation

My Mexico

Sway to the sounds, reach for the colors, dance to the rhythms, and you will find your own Mexico in these poems in both English and Spanish. "Johnston regales the senses with idyllic scenes of streets lined with a rainbow of adobe houses, with the scent of roses growing in coffee cans and lilies in chile jars, and with the sounds of fields of corn shaking quietly in the warm wind. The overall impression is one of sunbaked cheerfulness, warmth, and color ably reinforced by Sierra's pastel-tinted artwork." --The Horn Book
