I love Saturdays y domingos, By: Alma Flor Ada

I love Saturdays y domingos, is a book about a girl that hangs out with her english speaking grandparents on saturdays and her spanish speaking grandparents on domingos. I like this book because it shows the two different sides of her life. She can speak english when she needs to or spanish at other times. For example, she calls her grandparents on Saturdays grandma and grandpa, but on Sundays, domingos she calls her grandparents abuelita and abuelito. I think that this would be a great book for children that are just learning the english language or children that are from english/spanish speaking homes. This book really shows diversity with in the family which can be very important as the world is becoming more diverse.
