By Amy B. Moreno, Carlos Velez (Illustrator)
A child's questions become balloons, growing until she finds answers.
Six-year-old Eva's world is filled with questions, each one a colorful balloon she carries. From big concerns about ocean plastic to quirky musings on bats, her curiosity knows no bounds. As her balloons multiply, Eva learns that finding answers takes time, and that's perfectly okay. Join her bilingual journey of discovery, where every question is a step towards understanding.
A curious bilingual child experiences her many questions as vibrant, characterful balloons in this warm and funny picture book - with questions in English and Spanish. From the moment six-year-old Eva wakes up, her day is full of questions. Her Peruvian Papá says she has BILLIONS of questions, but really Eva has BALLOONS full of questions that she carries around until she can find the answers. Eva has big questions like What can I do about all the plastic in the ocean? and small questions like Dónde está Peru? She has funny questions like Do bats get dizzy hanging upside down? and confusing questions: Why are oranges orange?! Sometimes Eva’s bunch of balloons grows so big that it feels overwhelming, but she’s learning that it can take time to find out all the answers, and that’s OK.
