"Cesar Chavez and his fight for the rights of Hispanic agricultural workers is an inspirational story about unity, justice, and perseverance... Brian Armador reads the compelling text clearly and with power. Original music with a Latin flavor accompanies the production. This would make an excellent listening center and provides important insights into Hispanic civil rights."-School Library Journal

"Amador speaks with the wonder of a girl who is exploring the beach she loves so much. On both the English and Spanish tracks her enunciation is distinct. With deliberate pacing she lets listeners sense each of the girl's experiences throughout her beach day. Gentle sounds of water and shorebirds provide background."-AudioFile Magazine

One English paperback/CD and one paperback/CD of the Spanish edition in a large hang-up bag. Mia is not sure what to think when her Abuela comes to live with her family in the city.
