Grandmother's Nursery Rhymes/Las Nanas de Abuelita: Lullabies, Tongue Twisters, And Riddles from South America/Canciones de cuna, trabalenguas y adivinanzas de Suramérica - Hardcover
"Always quiet,
Always blinking,
by day sleeping,
at night winking."
What is it?
Grandmothers and grandfathers, uncles and aunts, parents and friends--everyone can share these rhymes, riddles, and lullabies with little children.
This bilingual collection introduces young children to the sounds of two languages. The verses work in both English and Spanish: read the poems in English to trip the tongue or tickle your fancy; read them in Spanish to practice rolling "r's"--or just sound out the syllables for the fun of it.
Nelly Jaramikllo's spirited text is matched by Elivia's warm, whimsical illustrations. Perfect for bedtime, learning time, or playtime, this collection will satisfy curious children every time.

About the Author:
Nelly Palacio Jaramillo was inspired by the birth of her granddaughter, Lucia, to collect the rhymes and verses of her childhood that evolved into Las Nanas, her first book for children.
Ms. Jaramillo was born in Cartagena, Colombia, but grew up in nearby Barranquilla. She came to the United States in 1962, and now lives with her husband in Flushing, New York.
Elivia Savadier pored over hundreds of photographs of Colombia and of the Jaramillo family before beginning the illustrations for Las Nanas.
A native of South Africa, Elivia moved to the United States in 1986. She makes her home in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, with her husband and their daughter, Sadye.
This is her fourth picture book.
