Once Upon a Cuento: Bilingual storytime and seed planting activity 

From award-winning author, Mayra Cuevas, comes a vibrant and heartwarming story of the bond between grandmother and grandchild, with a touch of Puerto Rican magic. My Abuela is a Bruja / Mi Abuela es Una Bruja will be available in English and Spanish.

Mayra will be at The Book Bird for a bilingual English and Spanish storytime. She has paired her reading with a seed starter craft activity that is tied to the story. 

Bilingual storytime reflects the diversity of the community while helping Spanish-speaking children feel validated, understood, celebrated and valued, through stories that reflect their cultural experiences. It also offers readers outside the community an opportunity for empathy, connection and shared humanity.
