On Saturdays, she visits Grandma and Grandpa, who come from a European-American background, and on Sundays -- \u003ci\u003elos domingos --\u003c\/i\u003e she visits \u003ci\u003eAbuelito y Abuelita, \u003c\/i\u003e who are Mexican-American. While the two sets of grandparents are different in many ways, they also have a great deal in common -- in particular, their love for their granddaughter. \u003cbr\u003e While we follow our narrator to the circus and the pier, share stories from her grandparents' pasts, and celebrate her birthday, the depth and joy of both cultures are conveyed in Spanish and English. This affirmation of both heritages will speak to all children who want to know more about their own families and ethnic backgrounds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eAda, Alma Flor:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Alma Flor Ada, an authority on multicultural and bilingual education, is the recipient of the 2012 Virginia Hamilton Literary Award, and in 2014 she was honored by the Mexican government with the prestigious OHTLI Award.
