The Place Where You Live / El lugar donde vives

32 pp. | Piñata | October, 2015 | Trade ISBN 978-1-55885-813-8 $17.95
(4) K-3 Translated by Gabriela Baeza Ventura. Illustrated by Thelma Muraida. "This is the field where you play with your team, / and parents cheer and your friends scream..." This book takes readers on a tour of a brother and sister's friendly town. The English text's irregular rhymes and rhythms are ignored by the Spanish translation; there are occasionally stilted moments in both languages. Muraida's illustrations are stiff but warm.
