Se\u00f1or Calvera is worried. He can’t figure out what to give Grandma Beetle for her birthday. Misunderstanding the advice of Zelmiro the Ghost, Se\u00f1or Calvera decides not to get her one gift, but instead one gift for every letter of the alphabet, just in case.<\/p>\n Una Acord\u00e9on: An accordion for her to dance to. . . . only to find out at the end of the alphabet that the best gift of all is seeing her friends. Morales’s art glows in this heart-warming original tale with folklore themes, a companion book to her Pura Belpr\u00e9-winning Just a Minute.<\/p>\n In English with Spanish vocabulary words<\/p>\n .<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”5px||4px|||” locked=”off”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”||||||||” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Abhaya Libre|700|||||||” header_2_font_size=”64px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”|||” custom_padding=”0px||0px|||” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”top” animation_intensity_slide=”5%” animation_starting_opacity=”100%” header_2_font_size_tablet=”40px” header_2_font_size_phone=”” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|tablet” inline_fonts=”Abhaya Libre”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”10px||5px|||”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_video src=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=c-wq0k_JPDY” _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default”][\/et_pb_video][et_pb_video_slider _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default”][\/et_pb_video_slider][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_video src=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Bbv2goPv8oI” _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default”][\/et_pb_video][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_video src=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ug3c3C1Kyh8″ _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default”][\/et_pb_video][et_pb_video_slider _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default”][\/et_pb_video_slider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”5px||4px|||” locked=”off”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”||||||||” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Abhaya Libre|700|||||||” header_2_font_size=”64px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”||4px|||” custom_padding=”0px||0px|||” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”top” animation_intensity_slide=”5%” animation_starting_opacity=”100%” header_2_font_size_tablet=”40px” header_2_font_size_phone=”” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|tablet” inline_fonts=”Abhaya Libre”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”|||2px||”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”|auto|-7px|auto||” custom_padding=”||8px|||”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”||||||||” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Abhaya Libre|700|||||||” header_2_font_size=”64px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”|||” custom_padding=”0px||0px|||” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”top” animation_intensity_slide=”5%” animation_starting_opacity=”100%” header_2_font_size_tablet=”40px” header_2_font_size_phone=”” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|tablet” inline_fonts=”Abhaya Libre”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”8px||3px|||”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||1px|||”]<\/p>\n \u2605 <\/span>“Richly hued and filled with action, the illustrations capture the tale\u2019s humor and Latin flavor perfectly, leading on to an entirely logical, hilarious and heartwarming surprise at the end.
