Description: "Coln's bright mixed-media illustrations are the highlight of Dorros's tale of a boy and his "abuelo gaucho" as they ride across what appears to be the pampas of Argentina. The dynamic interaction between the man and his grandchild is affectionately portrayed. Under the grandfather's gentle tutelage, the torch is passed from one generation to another as the child learns to apply valuable lessons to everyday life-such as standing firm when faced with a bully. All in all, this is a beautifully illustrated, sweet story." -Mary Margaret Mercado, Pima County Public Library - School Library Journal Perfect for a grandparent-themed story hour. - Booklist Warm, windy, wild and free. The story depicts the affection between a boy and his grandfather, his abuelo. Dorros' language and Coln's sculptural drawings evoke a time and place...where any child would like to live, or at least linger. - BookPage Told in graceful free verse, this book...evokes the freedom of the countryside and also the lessons of strength being taught across generations. - Waking Brain Cell Together, Arthur Dorros and Ral Coln capture the way and intimate bond between a boy and grandfather can feel like a magical, private world. This deceptively simple story with its universal appeal reminds children that love and comfort can cross many miles. - Shelf Awareness The lessons learned on the open plains help the young boy come to feel at home in the city--laughing when he feels fear, standing strong against a bully and finding comfort in gazing at the city stars. This book succeeds at both specificity and universality, presenting the distinct culture of the gaucho cowboy and the plains of South America through a story that will resonate broadly with many children and families. - Kirkus Reviews The warm relationship between a young boy and his...grandfather...soaring landscape and emotions. - Wall Street Journal
