The night she arrives, Mia tries to share her favorite book with Abuela before they go to sleep and discovers that Abuela canât read the words inside. So while they cook, Mia helps Abuela learn English (âDough. Masaâ), and Mia learns some Spanish too, but itâs still hard for Abuela to learn the words she needs to tell Mia all her stories. Then Mia sees a parrot in the pet-shop window and has the perfectoidea for how to help them all communicate a little better.
