Mi Tierra (Amaya Nuñez Book #1)
Written by Adria Quinones
Illustrated by Mrinali Alvarez
Published by Reycraft Books
Amaya Nuñez loves that no one else has her name. She loves her apartment and her busy New York City neighborhood.
She loves when her abuelo visits all the way from Spain. She loves summer trips to Vermont and dinners with her tía and tío. But those aren’t “su tierra”.
Amaya’s “tierra” has subways and bodegas, sidewalks and sprawling parks, and the most beautiful city sunsets.
“Su tierra” is one of a kind. Just like her.
