Loren Long.
Matt de la Peña's surprise Newbery win for Last Stop on Market Street has given his picture-book-writing career new life. The Spanish translation of his poetic picture-book paean to love (Love) is by Teresa Mlawer, whose skillful renderings of English texts into Spanish also deserve accolades. Her translation here is superlative, maintaining the poetic beauty and flow of de la Peña's original text.
