Libro de honor Pura Belpré 2022 en ilustración Todos los años en Nochebuena, Rosi y su mamá, su tía, su hermana y sus primos se reúnen en la cocina de la abuela para preparar tamales y contar historias.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONA delicious and fortifying picture book inspired by the author's family, featuring the Mexican tradition of holiday tamale-making A 2022 Pura Belpré Award Illustrator Honor Book «"What is the recipe?" I ask. Abuela laughs. "It is in my heart, Rosie. I use mis ojos, my eyes, to measure. Mis manos, my hands, to feel. Mi boca, my mouth, to taste. My abuela gave it to me, and I am giving it to you." Each year on Christmas Eve, Rosie's abuela, mamá, tía, sister, and cousins all gather together in Abuela's kitchen to make tamales--cleaning corn husks, chopping onions and garlic, roasting chilis, kneading cornmeal dough, seasoning the filling, and folding it all--and tell stories. Rosie learns from her abuela not only how to make a delicious tamale, but how to make a delicious life, one filled with love, plenty of spice, and family.»
