About this book

Español

Un pregón de frutas

Cuando visita a su abuelo, un niño lo ayuda a vender frutas, pregonando el nombre de cada una mientras caminan juntos: sus pasos repican como tambores y sus manos suenan cual maracas, agitando los brillantes colores de las frutas. Aunque viven lejos, abuelo y nieto comparten rimas juguetonas que viajan entre sus dos países, versos que vuelan como aves cantoras, cada sílaba un abrazo hecho de palabras. Un poemario ilustrado que celebra la familia, el lenguaje y el cariño entre generaciones.

English

Song of Frutas

When visiting Abuelo, a child helps him sell fruit, calling out each name as they walk together—their footsteps drumming, their hands shaking like maracas, stirring up the bright colors of the fruit. Though they live far apart, grandfather and grandchild share playful rhymes that travel between their two countries, their verses flying like songbirds across the miles, each syllable a hug made of words. A lyrical picture book celebrating family, language, and the joyful bond between generations.
