"Five-year-old Pablo can hardly wait to see how Abuelito, his
grandfather, has decorated Pablo’s tree for his birthday. When
Mamá first told her father that she was going to adopt a baby … Lito went out and bought the tree for his grandson … A
lovely and resonant picture book that, like the tree that Pablo
discovers decked with bells and wind chimes, rings with happiness
and family love."—Booklist
"This is a warm and gentle story, the tree-surprise aspect
gives the tale a pleasing sparkle, and the characters provide a
nice complement to all the WASP-y, Norman Rockwell families in
adoption books—the family is Latino, and mom is a single parent."
—The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
