Why read it?
1 author picked Martina Has Too Many Tias as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I loved that the heroine of this story, Martina, is a quiet, imaginative little girl. In contrast, she has loud, rambunctious Tias. So, she slips away at a party and finds a quiet place to imagine. This rollicking picture book reimagines the familiar Caribbean folktale, la Cucaracha Martina. The illustrations are bold and lively, and they are also available in Spanish.
From Varsha's list on inter-generational themes.
