Mariana and Her Familia

Mariana's tummy does a flip as she and Mami cross the Mexicana frontera. Mariana is visiting her Abuelita and extended family for the first time. At Abuelita's house, Mariana is overwhelmed by new faces and Spanish words she doesn't understand. But with a story, some kindness, and a few new words from Abuelita, Mariana discovers that the love of family knows no cultural divide.
