Summary of Book
Judging by the amount of books about Abuelas out there, Grandmothers must play a very important role in Hispanic families! While riding on a bus with her Abuela, a little girl imagines that they are carried up into the sky and fly over the sights of New York City. The melodic text and the exuberant mixed-media illustrations perfectly capture the jazzy energy of this imaginary trip.
