Publisher Description: RECIPIENT OF THE PURA BELPR ILLUSTRATOR HONOR Author-illustrator Carlos Aponte takes readers on a journey to the heart of Puerto Rico in this enchanting picture book set in Old San Juan. A lively and honest story about filling voids and exploring what defines a family--as well as a love letter to a childhood home.--Horn Book Carlitos lives in a happy home with his mother, his abuela, and Coco the cat. Life in his hometown is cozy as can be, but the call of the capital city pulls Carlitos across the bay in search of his father. Jolly pirag eros, mischievous cats, and costumed musicians color this tale of love, family, and the true meaning of home. |
