¡Hola a todos!
In the spirit of love and Valentine’s day, we are giving away both the Spanish and English versions of Alma Flor Ada’s, Love Amalia/Con cariño, Amalia. In this book, when Amalia’s best friend moves away, her grandmother is there to cheer her up. According to Alma Flor’s website, “Amalia finds great comfort in times shared with her grandmother: cooking, listening to stories and music, learning, and looking through her treasured box of family cards.” Love, Amalia/Con cariño, Amalia demonstrates the importance of love, family, friends and inner strength. It would be the perfect addition to the classroom, especially with the discussion questions and activities that Alma Flor provides on her website in both English and Spanish. Neosha reviewed this book in more detail, and I recommend that you check out her post.
To be entered in this giveaway, comment on this post by February 29th. If your name is chosen, we will email you about mailing the book to you.
¡Suerte!
