Cousins are friends and rivals Cousins are funny and frustrating But the most important thing is that cousins are family We are Cousins Somos primos celebrates the joy of this special family bond The children explain that they are cousins because their mothers are sisters and from the moment they get together the fun begins They march in a make-believe parade gobble up a pizza and share a cozy story on Abuelos lap But they also blame each other if something goes wrong dont want to share their toys and wiggle against each other to nab a spot on Abuelas lap Written in simple language for children ages - the brief English and Spanish text will become a valuable tool to encourage children to think and talk about their own families It will also become a favorite book for children and grandchildren to share with their parents grandparents aunts uncles and of course cousins Vivid illustrations by Christina Rodriguez in bright primary colors complement this story that will be as much fun to read at story hour as it will be to read on the family sofa.
