Overview

The Spanish text is like a beautiful poem, with the father’s words bringing calm and patience to Muriel when she needs them most. . . A magical Spanish picture book that is a must have.-School Library Journal, starred review

Avocado seeds and slow growing! A young girl’s impatience turns to wonder as she and her avocado tree gradually change and grow in this story inspired by Israeli artist Taltal Levi’s childhood.

Semillas de aguacate y el crecimiento lento! La impaciencia de una ni?a se convierte en asombro mientras su ?rbol de aguacate y ella misma cambian y crecen paulatinamente en esta historia inspirado en la infancia propia de la artista israel? Taltal Levi.

Muriel is sulking–she celebrated her birthday yesterday under the old avocado tree, but today she’s not even a little bit taller! Dad tells Muriel a secret: She is like the pit of an avocado, he explains, small and full of magic. Together they put an avocado seed in a glass of water by the window and watch as both Muriel and her avocado plant grow, take root, and eventually bring new life.

Avocados are ubiquitous and plucked straight from the tree in Taltal Levi’s native country, Israel, as well as throughout Latin America. In her third book, Taltal Levi uses warm, earthy colors to tell a personal yet universal story about the magic of growth.

Includes instructions for growing your own avocado tree!

Muriel est? de mal humor: ayer celebr? su cumplea?os bajo el viejo ?rbol de aguacate, pero hoy est? m?s alta- ni un poquito! Pap? le cuenta a Muriel un secreto: Ella es como una semilla de aguacate, chiquita pero llena de magia. Juntos, colocan en la ventana una semilla de aguacate en un vaso de agua y observan c?mo tanto Muriel como su planta de aguacate crecen, echan ra?ces y finalmente engendran nueva vida.

Los aguacates est?n en todos partes y se recogen directamente del ?rbol en el pa?s natal de Taltal Levi, Israel, as? como por toda Am?rica Latina. En su tercer libro, Taltal Levi utiliza colores c?lidos para contar una historia personal pero universal sobre la magia del crecimiento.

Incluye instrucciones para cultivar tu propio ?rbol de aguacate!
