Introduce your little ones to the celebratory milestone of graduation and how one's family will always support dreams and goals, both in English and Spanish!
Inspired by Mesoamerican pictorial manuscripts, particularly the Aztec codices, this almost-textless hardcover celebrates the perseverance it takes to graduate and how family will always be there to see you from the beginning to the end - walking across the stage. Perfect for graduation celebrations, this book will honor the hard work it takes to graduate and how one's family is the reason for one's success.
"A lovely work inspired by Aztec art and perfect for gift giving or back-to-school read-alouds."--Shelley M. Diaz "School Library Journal" (7/5/2022 12:00:00 AM)
