Summary

"Refranes de mi Abuelita: Sayings of my Grandmother' is a bilingual treasure that brings to life the vibrant colors and rich heritage of the Dominican Republic, right through to the lively streets of New York City. It's not just a book; it's a journey through a tapestry of sayings passed down from generation to generation. This book is an invitation to experience the warmth and guidance that Edward's grandmother offered through her words. It's a celebration of the enduring spirit and rich culture of the Dominican people, a chronicle of history, family, and the power of words to teach, comfort, and connect us. Open its pages and find yourself transported, not just to another place, but to another way of seeing the world." -- Amazon
