Why read it?
1 author picked Abuelo, the Sea, and Me as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Stories from our grandparents tie us to our roots if we are lucky enough to listen. This is a heartwarming book about a grandfather and his granddaughter sharing stories that drift out, all the way to Abuelo’s past in his island home, and come back to the present beach day, like the coming and going of the waves and the seasons.
The sensory details in the writing instantly transported me to the sand and salty air of the Caribbean. By the end of this book, my heart was aglow with nostalgia.
From Gabriella's list on celebrate being Latine in the US.
