I trust that as readers read both A, Is for Abuela (book 1) and Lolitas Christmas Angel (book 2), they see two worlds combine into one by the power of education and a loving family. Lolita is now entering her second semester of kindergarten and once again is presented with a choicego to school or go to Cuba. Unfortunately for her, her dad chooses school. This causes Lolita to feel disappointed, but Mrs. McAllister, the best teacher ever, comes to the rescue with her show-and-tell day. Now Lolita has the opportunity to share with her class a family tradition that means the world to her. She brings to life her grandfathers famous Caja China, and life brings on an entirely new meaning.
