Tía Isa sueña con comprar un carro, uno lo bastante grande para llevar a toda la familia a la playa. Pero ahorrar es difícil, porque la mitad del dinero se guarda para traer algún día a los familiares que viven lejos. Decidida a ayudar, su sobrina hace pequeños trabajos para los vecinos y junta moneda tras moneda. Meg Medina narra con prosa sencilla y lírica una historia sincera sobre recordar a los seres queridos que están lejos, acompañada por los entrañables personajes de Claudio Muñoz. Un libro ilustrado cálido sobre la familia, la paciencia y la esperanza.

English Translation

Tía Isa Wants a Car

Tía Isa dreams of buying a car—one big enough to carry the whole family to the beach. Saving is slow, though, because half of every dollar is set aside to bring relatives who live far away to join them someday. Determined to help, her young niece takes on odd jobs for the neighbors, coin by coin. Meg Medina's simple, heartfelt story about holding loved ones close even across distance is told in lyrical prose and brought to life by Claudio Muñoz's charming illustrations. A warm picture book about family, patience, and hope.
