In the final chapters...the book...takes on an authentic emotional poignancy, bringing a closing richness to this story of a girl's first experience of loss."
--Publishers Weekly, " May 28, 2012
"Ada and Zubizarreta (Dancing Home", 2011) reunite to focus on a young Latina girl coping with loss.... The authors tackle issues of love, loss and familial ties with a sympathetic, light hand and blend Spanish words and Latino music and recipes into Amalia's tale. A charming story, especially for children facing the loss of grandparents."
--"Kirkus Reviews, "June 1, 2012
"With sensitively drawn characters and a low-key story moving between present and past, the authors construct a portrait of a multigenerational immigrant family. The Latino culture of the family is reflected in the cooking the two do together, the memories Abuelita passes on, and all the letters she has kept from distant loved ones."
--"Horn Book Magazine, "July/August 2012
"Amalia is upset when her best friend announces that she is moving from Chicago to California. When Martha leaves, Amalia turns to her grandmother for comfort. It is in her kitchen and at her table that the child learns not only about her family and her Mexican heritage, but also about herself.... This story utilizes a special intergenerational relationship to introduce Mexican culture and traditions within the themes of changing family and friendships. Spanish words and phrases are woven into the text...this quiet story may provide a different perspective on the loss of a loved one."""
--"School Library Journal, "August 2012
"A touching portrayal of love and loss.... The emotions ring true, with Amalia's raw pain of loss and resentment respectfully and vividly depicted."
