No More Senora Mimi
Meg Medina
From Newbery Medalist Meg Medina, National Ambassador for Young People's Literature, comes a poignant salute to the caregivers who enter a child's tender world.
I toss the blanket aside and crawl into her lap. I hold her braid above my lip like a moustache until she laughs.
Ana cannot contain her excitement - her abuela is coming to stay with her and Mami! Abuela is sure to let Ana play whenever she wants instead of rushing her off to school, like her neighbour and babysitter, senora Mimi, sometimes does. In fact, as Ana's classmate points out, she won't need senora Mimi to babysit at all any more. But senora Mimi is a good listener, and they have a lot of fun together feeding the squirrels and eating snacks. Maybe Ana isn't ready to say goodbye to senora Mimi just yet? Masterful storyteller Meg Medina shares a reassuring tale that celebrates caregivers and community and their special role in our lives, paired with warm, expressive illustrations by Brittany Cicchese.
