Mamá and Me

"Vámanos," Mamá says.

"Let's go!"

Together we garden and bake.

We bike and paint a mural,

colorful and bright.

I do some things sola,

all by myself.

Mamá says, "¡Perfecto!"—

just perfect!

With Mamá, I feel like a girasol,

a sunflower, tall and proud.

For a bilingual girl and her mamá, a loving bond is about being together ... and independent. Arthur Dorros's skillful and subtle blend of English and Spanish narrative, illustrated with bold, striking paintings by award-winning artist Rudy Gutierrez, offers readers a poignant reminder that every day with Mamá is dulce — sweet!
