Maya and Annie are friends who play together only on Saturdays and Sundays. They make lemonade with lemons from the big tree in Annieâs yard and play with Mayaâs two little dogs. Maya likes the different food Annieâs dad cooks: noodles, rice, fish and dumplings. And Annie likes eating dinners Mayaâs mom makes: tacos, chicken, tamales and rice and beans.
One special night, Annieâs dad and Mayaâs mom invite their grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins to a big dinner and make a special announcement: theyâre getting married! The girls will become sisters, and theyâll spend every day of the week together.
From posadas to Lunar New Year, each girl recounts her perspective of their friendship on alternating pages that are paired with lively illustrations by Thelma Muraida. Based on Gwendolyn Zepedaâs own experiences with her family, this engaging bilingual picture book for ages 4-8 explores blended families from a multicultural perspective, combining Asian and Latino cultural traditions. - Baker & Taylor
