Overview

Abuelita teaches Carmencita that you can't rush mango-eating- it takes five steps to appreciate the gift and feel the love. Abuelita le ensena a Carmencita que comer un mango no puede precipitarse- se necesitan cinco pasos para apreciar el regalo y sentir el amor. Carmencita no quiere ayudar a Abuelita a recoger mangos. Ni siquiera le gustan! Ensucian, se atoran entre sus dientes y es una lata limpiar los podridos. Pero Abuelita adora los mangos y, con paciencia, le ensena a Carmencita la forma correcta de comerlos. Juntas, escuchan susurrar a las hojas del arbol, sienten sus ramas y raices arriba y abajo, y huelen y sienten los dulces y suaves frutos. Cada paso es una meditaci n sobre todo lo que Mama Tierra ha dado, y en el amor de la Tierra, Carmencita siente el amor de su Mami, su Papi, su hermanito Carlitos y por supuesto, Abuelita. Cuando al fin prueban una mordida, los jugos escurriendo por sus brazos, Carmencita lo comprende. Los mango son mas que una fruta... y ya esta lista para otro! Inspirado en la infancia de la autora Paola Santos en Venezuela, esta historia, tan dulce como un mango, fomenta la gratitud por los regalos de la naturaleza y la conexi n con la familia y la cultura. Las alegres ilustraciones de Juliana Perdomo dan vida a Carmencita, Abuelita y su arbol de mango con toda la calidez de los frutos dorados bajo el sol.
