Description
An uplifting, heartwarming picture book about a young boy who organizes his neighborhood in support of a beloved member of their community.
Mamá Elena always knows just what to do when someone needs help. Whether it's a delicious meal or simply lending an ear, she keeps her community together. And because of her warmth, her home is Manuel's favorite.
But when Mamá Elena suffers a fall that leaves her bedridden, the barrio changes. A somber mood takes hold, and Manuel desperately wants to help lift her spirits.
In a selfless act of organizing, Manuel gathers his neighborhood to give back all the love and support they have received from Mamá Elena.
In the vein of classics like Last Stop on Market Street and A Sick Day for Amos McGee comes a treasure of a picture book that will touch any heart that picks it up.
