Squawk of Spanish / Gabriella Aldeman ; illustrated by Romina Galotta.
"Max's Abuela speaks only Spanish. But Max refuses to try to speak Spanish. His cousins tease him because his Rs won't roll. Lorito, Abuela's chatty parrot, helps Max and Abuela translate recipes in the kitchen when they bake together on weekends. Then one day Lorito is nowhere to be found. Can Max and Abuela figure out how to communicate? In this sweet story, Max learns that trying is what counts, and love is a language everyone can speak."-- Front flap.
