Description
Like all kids, Little Diego and his big sister Gabriela argue over their new dog Sofie. “She belongs to me,” says Diego. “No, she’s mine,” says Gabriela. It’s only when Sofie gets really sick that they find out who their tortilla-loving pup really belongs to.
Once again, Benjamin Alire Sáenz shows he understands the chemistry and dynamics of family, this time with a dog stirring up the recipe. The illustrations for The Dog Who Loved Tortillas are by Geronimo Garcia, who created the characters of Little Diego and Gabriela first introduced in Sáenz’s early best-selling title A Gift from Papá Diego.
Como todos los niños, Dieguito y su hermana mayor, Gabriela, se pelean sobre su nueva perrita, Sofie. “Es mia”, dice Diego. “No, es mía”, dice Gabriela. Pero cuando se enferma Sofie, se dan cuenta de quién tiene la razón.
