When Mia's abuela arrives, they want to share everything, but there is one big problem. Abuela does not speak English, and Mia does not know enough Spanish to understand her grandmother's wonderful stories. As they cook together, they try to teach each other new words, but it is still very hard to communicate. Then Mia spots a bright parrot in a pet shop window and comes up with the perfect plan to help them talk to each other. You will be touched by this beautiful story about patience, learning, and the creative ways we connect with the people we care about. It is a heartwarming journey that shows how love can easily bridge any language gap in a family.
