Rosa and her Spanish-speaking abuela (grandmother) fly high above New York City, past the Statue of Liberty, and see the sights below. Several dozen Spanish words and phrases are woven into the fanciful picture book story, and the vibrant collage of watercolors, pastels, and cut paper pulses with colors and tiny details of city life.

I like this book because my grandmas speak to me in Spanish. I don't fly with my grandmas, but I do drive around with her and she takes me to all the places I like, but it would be really great to get to fly with the grandma to see all the different places and visit everyone.

I really like this book as it reminds me of my abuela who lives in Belize. It makes me laugh and I picture myself with my abuela doing these fun things in NYC.
