Carmen Lomas Garza
Even though we didn't grow up in a poor rural Hispanic community (but instead a border urban community), many of Carmen Lomas Garza's books touch my heart in a very profound way because they show the family always together. This is what I love about the traditions of being part of a Mexican American family.

This is so how I grew up, but no quince :(
Beautiful illustrations and very well written.
I didn't have one either. :(
My Papa (who was American) wanted me to have one, and my Mama (who was Mexican, said no b/c of the money.
They're like mini weddings.
But oh, so fun!
