Rezensionen
Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.
This book is a story about an abuela and her granddaughter, and the fun things they do together. This was a good story, but a little flat and didn't really pull me in. But the relationship between a grandmother and granddaughter illustrated in this story was really special. This book would be appropriate for early readers.
A Gift from Abuela is a beautiful book about a grandmother who wants to do something special for her granddaughter Nina. However, after saving up so much money to do something special, something bad happens ruining her plans. This is a great book to show how even during financial troubles what matters is the relationship that you have with your family, because that is worth way more than what money has to offer.
