Spanish Description

A Charmed Life

Felicia siempre se siente muy pequeña cuando ella y su mamá pasan junto a las enormes casas y los hermosos jardines hacia la casa donde su madre trabaja como limpiadora. "Necesito que te portes bien", le dice su madre, recordándole todo lo que debe y no debe hacer. Pero Felicia se aburre y, a pesar de las advertencias de su madre, comienza a explorar. Encuentra una habitación llena de juguetes. ¡Cuánto desearía que su casa luciera así! Desde una ventana ve un acogedor columpio en el patio trasero, y pronto está rompiendo todas las reglas de su madre. Cuando la Sra. Fitzpatrick sale, Felicia no puede evitar preguntarse si la mujer sabe que está merodeando por la casa. Para su sorpresa, la pelirroja le ofrece limonada y galletas en lugar de una reprimenda. Pronto, las dos se dan cuenta de que, aunque viven en mundos diferentes, tienen algo en común. Este libro ilustrado bilingüe se presta a conversaciones sobre esperanzas, sueños y las diferencias entre las personas.

About the Book

Felicia always feels very small when she and her mom walk by the huge homes and beautiful gardens to the house where her mother works as a cleaning lady. “I need you to behave,” her mother says, reminding her of all the things she should and shouldn’t do.
But Felicia gets bored, and in spite of her mother’s warnings, begins to explore. She finds a bedroom full of toys. How she wished that her house looked like this! From a window she sees an inviting swing set in the back yard, and soon she’s breaking all of her mother’s rules.
When Mrs. Fitzpatrick comes outside, Felicia can’t help but wonder if the woman knows she was roaming through the house. To her surprise, the red-headed woman offers her lemonade and cookies instead of a scolding. Soon the two realize that—even though they live in different worlds—they have something in common. This bilingual picture book will lend itself to conversations about hopes and dreams and the differences among people.
