Follow an imaginative boy and his family as they take a faraway trip above the clouds and across the sea to visit his beloved grandma. Ginger Foglesong Guy's lyrical words draw readers gently along the journey, with each moment of adventure and tenderness—familiar to most young readers—captured by Viví Escrivá's sensitive watercolors. Simple words in both English and Spanish provide valuable bilingual vocabulary lessons on every page.

Sigue a un niño lleno de imaginación mientras atraviesa el cielo y el mar con su familia para visitar a su amada abuelita. Las palabras líricas de Ginger Foglesong Guy dulcemente dirigen el viaje del lector, y las sensibles acuarelas de Viví Escrivá capturan cada momento de aventura y ternura. Palabras sencillas en inglés y español en cada página proporcionan varias oportunidades para lecciones de vocabulario en ambos idiomas.

From Booklist:
Similar in concept to Guy and Escriva's bilingual My School / Mi Escuela (2006), this simple picture book follows a father and his son and daughter as they get up one morning ("Buenos dias. Good morning") and take a taxi from their city apartment to the airport. They board a plane ("Avion. Airplane. / Boleto. Ticket") and fly away to visit the children's grandmother, who plays with them and tucks them into bed ("Buenas noches. Good night"). Each double-page spread offers a well-composed and nicely detailed scene for children to absorb, while the brief text introduces a couple of words or phrases in both Spanish and English. The more rural, tropical setting at the grandmother's home contrasts with the children's urban neighborhood; each has its own charms in the engaging pencil-and-watercolor illustrations. A natural for reading aloud in homes and classrooms where both English and Spanish are spoken. Pair this with Susan Middleton Elya's Bebe Goes Shopping (2006). Carolyn Phelan
