by Paola Santos (Author), Juliana Perdomo (Illustrator)
Abuelita teaches Carmencita that you can't rush mango-eating: it takes five steps to appreciate the gift and feel the love.
Carmencita doesn't want to help Abuelita pick mangoes; she doesn't even like them! They're messy, they get stuck in her teeth, and it's a chore to throw out the rotten ones. But Abuelita adores mangoes, and patiently, she teaches Carmencita the right way to eat them. Together, they listen to the tree's leaves, feel its branches and roots above and below, and smell and feel the sweet, smooth fruits. Each step is a meditation on everything Mamá Earth has given, and in the Earth's love, Carmencita feels the love of her Mami, her Papi, her little brother Carlitos, and of course, Abuelita. When they finally bite in, the juice running down their arms, Carmencita understands. The mangoes are more than just mangoes... and she's ready for another! Inspired by her own childhood in Venezuela, Paola Santos's mango-sweet story is a grounding, life-affirming take on gratitude for nature's gifts and connection with family and culture. Juliana Perdomo's cheery artwork brings Carmencita, Abuelita, and their mango tree to life with all the warmth of golden fruit under the sun. Simultaneously released in Spanish as Cómo se come un mango.Author Biography
