Emilio and Abuelo: two adventurers off to see the moon!
Emilio loves spending vacations out in the forest at his abuelo's house. The woods are mysterious, and Abuelo and Emilio can dine outside by the light of a lantern every night. And then, best of all, Abuelo tells his fantastical stories! One night, when there's a full moon, Abuelo suggests they go and meet the moon. At first, Emilio isn't sure he's serious--but Abuelo is a true adventurer! And so the two, boy and grandfather, set off on their mission. But what creatures might await them in the forest? And will they really get to see the moon?
Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"This well-orchestrated adventure is a childhood idyll, complete with apple cake, chocolate, just enough danger, and the ultimate luxury of being carried home asleep in a grandfather's arms." --Horn Book Magazine (starred review)
"Translations of Schuff's writing into English capture the reverent tone of the original Spanish and perfectly fit with the art, as delicate, imagistic phrasing is complemented by etched, pencil-like strokes that have both a groundedness and a sense of the fantastical...Read this to any child who delights in nature or any child who knows that time spent with a beloved grownup can be the most magical adventure." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
