A boy
and his grandfather, Abuelo, spend time together in the country. They ride
horses together, exploring the beauty of nature and learning life lessons. When
the boy moves to the city, he those memories and lesson infuse his daily life
and make it better.
This book is special. It’s inspiring, sweet, and profound. It’s a fantastic addition to any collection, especially for grandparents day. I like how the boy is able to transfer his knowledge and his grandfather’s memory into new parts of his life. The artwork is stunning and unique.
