Publisher's Synopsis

From Pura Belpré Honor-winning author Laekan Zea Kemp comes a beautiful ode to family and multi-generational homes.

Everyone has their special place in the house. Abuela cooks in the kitchen. Mami reads by the window. Tìa Imelda watches telenovelas in the living room. Abuelo tinkers around in his workshop. Even family members who have come and gone have had their special place. But what makes a house a home?

With lyrical prose and warm illustrations, this love letter to multigenerational and multi-family households will have readers listening for a heartbeat in their own homes.
