Tortillas and Lullabies / Tortillas y cancioncitas (Bilingual Hardcover, English/Spanish)

In English and in Spanish, Lynn Reiser presents the Central American companion book to her Cherry Pies and Lullabies. Again, four generations of mothers and daughters participate in family traditions-this time within a Costa Rican culture in which they share such things as tortilla making and flower gathering. Extraordinary folk-art painting by "Corazones Valientes," an organization of women artists in Costa Rica, accompany this universal and unforgettable story of family love.

A young girl describes activities that her great-grandmother, grandmother, and mother all did for their daughters, and that she does for her doll.
