Publisher's Summary
Debut Cuban-American author, Lauren Agra Deedy and award-winning artist Susan Gal join forces in this charming, heartfelt picture book story about an immigrant family-and their love and caring for family they left behind.
William's Mami and his Tía Ana are busy packing a big box of food, medicine, and clothing to mail to their family living in Cuba.
But something important is missing.
They have no zapatos, no shoes, to send Cousin Leo!
"Which cousin is Leo?" William asks.
Tía Ana answers him with a thin paper tracing of Leo's footprint. She nudges him out the door to find someone in the family with spare shoes in Leo's size. But finding shoes for Leo is not as easy as it seems.
With warmth and tenderness, Lauren Agra Deedy and Susan Gal have ceated a rich, colorful story of a tight-knit family - and the love that grows as they care for those living far away.
